    Yup, it's a real nice range, and the fact that it's well maintained and FREE makes it even better!

    What range and magnification is the through-the-scope pic taken?

    Looks like a great spot.

    thats an awesome range! My closest reasonable range is 550yds and it's just a straight line up into a hill.... Yours is prime! enjoy that.
    What calibre is your boom stick?

    Thanks for posting this. I had heard of the range, but it sounded too good to be true! Steel to 1000 yards and free!. Thanks for the pics, google maps doesn't do the range justice.

    Looks like I'll have a LMT MWS inbound to me soon, I think I know where I'll stretch its legs. Finally something I want my tax dollars to go to!

    Can you shoot prone?
    Didn't look busy over Memorial Day, do you know if it ever is busy?

    Thanks!

    I suppose you can....I did! But, then again, I was the only one there at the time. I don't know if it's ever busy. I've only been there the one time.
