Just found local 1000 yard range

[SmallBoreSnipers]

I've been living in the capital district for 30 years and have never heard of this place. Pretty sweeeeeeeeet, and dues is only $40/year. Not bad at all. Just might have to invest in another centerfire. Or finally get that .17 out to 600. The only thing is that in order to become a member you have to classify yourself in an NRA shooting sport. Anyone know how you go about doing that?

Looks like a nice range. The yearly dues are definitely priced right.

To get a classification, you have to shoot in either an approved or registered match. Be that highpower, smallbore, or something else. After a certain number of competition shots are reported to the NRA you will recieve a classification card. Hope this helps.

^Cool. The range I usually go to up here holds smallbore so I can do that to get into that other range.
