[QUOTE="just browsing, post: 1042099, member: 87559"] Yeah, there's not really a lot of options around where we are. There are a few 1,000 yard ranges within a couple hours drive, but a lot of them are membership only / don't let people just come for the day to shoot. While I do understand that, I don't make the drive often enough to justify the cost of getting a membership. Public ranges are just incubators for unsafe firearm handling and it doesn't make me feel any better drawing unnecessary attention to myself. The ranges around here do require some safety training, pretty sure it's every 2 months or so. The range that you go to sounds pretty legit for some serious shooters though, and honestly that would be an ideal situation. Unfortunately I don't have that luxury around where I live, so I have to make do with what I have. That's a good way to do it. Maybe I'll try to distance myself from the rest of the line so as to make it a little more bearable, but I'm glad to know that some of you boys shooting these big rounds have dealt with the same thing. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't the only one. [/QUOTE]
