[QUOTE="406precision, post: 1041984, member: 69335"] Range etiquette is a huge problem. We don't do a lot of public range shooting..because quite honestly we don't have to, but we do use a local range for 100 yard stuff and zeroing and we often rent the facility for private classes etc.. Some of the things I have seen there will make you cringe from unsafe activity to misinformed, uneducated parties that are spreading mistruths and misinformation faster than you can correct it. I don't know how you guys in bigger cities handle it.. The main thing I have noticed equipment wise is that bigger rifles and custom rifles get a lot of people interested in shooting ... a target cam system will flat shut the range down and breaks don't always make you friends...but suppressors do!LOL My ideas on noise are simple...its a shooting range if loud isn't your thing I am sorry, but I am also not going to shoot my rifle in a different configuration just to please your ear drums. I spend more time on the local range answering questions or demoing gear than I do shooting...but hey that doesn't bother me if I can help someone find the right rifle or equipment that makes them more successful in the field I am a happy camper :D The local range is a good place to meet like minded people and to promote our sport ...are their idiots...yes hopefully they don't out way the good ones.
