I just went today and thought I'd update about the range if it hasn't been done already.
Got there around 11am and was pretty much totally alone for the hour I shot, which was very nice. Only paid $5 for the whole day which was good, but I would gladly pay more if the range had better upkeep.
There are twelve benches available, 3 of which for handguns and shotguns. The rest are for centerfire rifles. The worst thing about the range is the target backers. All of them are rubber, no plywood and totally covered in staples. I had to beat them down to make a space available to tack my targets. There are 4 backers for handguns/shotguns, all of which were missing the centers entirely, about the size of a basketball. The rifle backers were the worst.
Out of the 9 available only 2 or 3 were usable. Only 1 was in good condition. The frame had collapsed on one, the backer had fallen off another and all the others were blown to smithereens.
If it had been a busy day, forget it. It would have been a pain dealing with the ruined target stands.
The other thing about the range is there's nothing available to shoot at in-between 25 and 100 yards.
But overall it's a nice range. If the backers get fixed, it would be a great range.
Also, my SKS can't hit the broad side of a barn.
