• No fully automatic firearms.
• No bi-metal, armor piercing, bi-metal, steel core, incendiary or tracer rounds allowed.
• Center fire rifles may be discharged at benches 1 & 2
• The benches are the firing line. Do not move beyond the benches to shoot.
• Be sure of your target and what is beyond it. Avoid shooting targets BEHIND your target.
• Avoid shooting the wooden target board and frame supports.
• The “Red Range” flag must be flown prior to commencement of any shooting.
• Do not handle firearms at your vehicle.
• NEVER walk down range to check targets until all firearms have been placed in the proper safe position and a “range is clear” has been declared and acknowledged by the other shooters.
