Red Brush Rifle Range Alert
400- & 500-yard rifle bays are reopening soon! Please read whole message for crucial
details.
Thank you to all who came to our monthly meeting. Your feedback is appreciated.
The rifle bays are scheduled to reopen on Tuesday January 13 at 6:00 am but may open
sooner. If the 400-yard gate is open, that bay is again available for member use.
Please be aware of recent changes in bay use:
∙The hung steel target plates in the 100-, 200-, and 300-yard bunkers must only be shot
from benches 1 through 6.
∙Except for the above, do not shoot at an angle across the bay. Targets must be placed as
straight ahead of firing line location as possible so that the bullets will be stopped by the
back impact berm.
∙Only the hung steel target plates are allowed to be shot in the bunkers. No other targets
are allowed to be placed within the bunkers. There must be no intentional shooting of the
protective plates, posts, or walls.
∙No modifications are allowed to these bunkers except the painting of the hung steel target
plates. The protective plates, posts, and walls must not be painted as they are not allowed
targets.
∙Ground targets are no longer allowed on the rifle bays. Do not place cans, plastic bottles,
self-healing ‘jump-style’ targets, or similar items on the ground and shoot at them.
∙Execute a ceasefire if someone is downrange even if off our property. This includes
farmers in the fields to the West and South of the bays.
If you see anyone violating these, please ask them to stop at once. If you have any questions
about these points, please reach out to me.
