600 Yard Safety
Home Up Training What's New Map to Range Disclaimer Fire Arms Links Political News Calendar Membership Meetings Feedback Bylaws

 

The eastern 600 yard range is open to general use and is unsupervised except during matches.

  • To use the 600 yard range, you must raise the red flag at the intersection of the range roads immediately west of the covered firing line at the 600 yard range before firing OR before going downrange to place your target.

  • If you get to the range and the flag is raised, assume someone IS down range and verify it is clear before assuming someone forgot and left the flag up when they left the range.

  • If you get to the range and the flag is not raised, assume someone IS down range and has forgotten to raise it.  Verify it is clear before assuming no one is downrange.

  • When you get to the 600 yard range, always assume someone has made a mistake in using the flag.  Go down range before you commence firing and verify no one is in the 'Butts' or target area before opening fire.  Never assume the range is safe to fire on until you check it out.

 

Safety is not just the  Number One Issue, It is THE  MORAL ISSUE!
