Aaaaaa, can't the Club Members figure out what/how to improve your range. I'm sure, betwix all of you, there is alot of knowledge on different ranges and ideas on how to improve your own.
I would think that only the Club Members can really submit ideas as they know what you currently have, it's capabilities, it's weaknesses. Just MHO. ------------------ Schmit GySgt, USMC(Ret) NRA Life, Lodge 1201-UOSSS "Si vis Pacem Para Bellum" |

as with most organizations these days, there are a lot of experts with conflicting ideas. just seeking other, unbias suggestions, alternatives.

Sparemag,
The NRA itself is one of the best places for the info you are after. |

Cant really say with out seeing the range.
If outside: You will want to make sure you got a good back stop... maybe rent a bulldozer to push up some earth to make a bigger one or a wider one... Overhead cover is good for the bench area... if you have a bench area... Man... where do I start? If indoors - try better lighting, or ventalation... heck - if you got all that - buy a pop machine for drinks and a vending machine for ammo... Seriously - describe your range. ------------------ "A fear of weapons is a sign of retarded sexual and emotional maturity." - Sigmund Freud |
