Hello all, Saturday April 27th, I made a visit to the range to place the new climate control box for the AED back at the 50. If the AED is used please advise a board member or myself so that we can reset the AED and the cable for the AED box alarm. If the AED is removed an alarm will activate and can only be silenced by replacing the cable or shutting the door on the cabinet. When I arrived to place the new box I noticed that someone had been shooting at the drink machine end of the 50 and had left a large amount of fired brass from a shooting session on the concrete floor. While we are glad you are enjoying the range please be kind and clean up your fired casings from the range surface. If you notice any unfired rounds or misfires, please place those in the dud can, several unfired rounds were found by numerous members and myself that morning. This keeps it safe for fellow members to walk on the concrete surface. Also please clean up your target backers by removing your used targets from the backer and placing the backer back …

Members, We found today almost a box of fired “00” buck shells on the trap field today (Sunday).  This is a reminder that the allowed shot size on ANY shotgun field is 7.5, 8, 8.5, and 9.  In other word no shot larger that 7.5.  The reason for that is SAFETY!  Larger shot size will exceed our safe fall area.  Depending on how these were fired, they could have easily left our range. There is zero reason to have something that large on the trap field.  If you want to shot slugs, buck shot etc (anything larger than 7.5 shot, then you are welcome to use the SRB, 50yd  or 100m. Thank you for your attention!!!
