 What to do

Bring your firearms to the line in a hard or soft case. Check with the range personnel for a shooting position and sign the shooting log book.

Range Commands

Cease fires to change targets are normally called 20 minutes per relay.  Range commands are:

  • Complete your firing - finish up the ammunition that's already loaded in your firearm

    • Clear and unload your firearm

    • Place it on the bench with the action open and chamber visible from the rear

    • Pick up from your bench any supplies needed to repair your target - stapler, targets, tape, etc.

    • Step behind the yellow line

  • Cease fire - do NOT pull the trigger once this command is given. 

    • Clear and unload your firearm immediately

    • Place it on the bench with the action open and chamber visible from the rear

    • Pick up from your bench supplies needed to repair your target - stapler, targets, tape, etc.

    • Step behind the yellow line

  • The line is safe, you may go forward - with your target supplies already in hand, you may tend to your target

    • After you've repaired/replaced your target, stand behind the yellow line

  • The line is hot - you may approach your bench, handle firearms and commence firing

  • Cease Fire may be called at anytime, not only when it is time to change targets.   Anyone may call Cease Fire if they feel there is any unsafe condition

What to bring

 

  • TARGET FRAME-frames are NOT provided
