If you live close, for $35 a year, (I think that's the price) you have access to it all. </div></div>
Kraig,
They are $60 now, but still a good deal. I grew up building and shooting at this range. My dad was president for most of a decade. It was 5 wood benches with one 100 yard backer when he was elected. Not only did I learn how to shoot there, I also learned welding, pouring concrete, roofing, dirt work, target setting, scoring, you name it. A couple of experienced builders were always working on something and willing to teach a kid how it was supposed to go. Once the guys saw you were serious about learning to shoot and not just a TV gazer dad drug out to the range, they were super-helpful. I learned something about benchrest, practical pistol, trap, skeet, silhouette, CMP, and rimfire there - all from a great group of guys. Good memories there - thanks for bringing them back.
