What if the ammo they sell doesn't work in your gun? Guaranteed lost customer.

Or better yet, they same stuff you already have in your range bag

[lebru]

if they are selling a box of 50 9mm for less or right at $8, I would still go there.


have we confirmed you HAVE to use their ammo? like how the shootist give you a discount if you shoot their ammo, will they do the same and just pay the usual range fee to use yours?

It's on the updated website, second line:

We require you to use our ammuntion in the pistol bays.

Every time I try and call, no one answers.

Lame, i'll just keep going to the Shootist, which is almost as close, and lax range rules, for pistol

[Fromk]

I'll probably end up waiting a couple weeks to check it out thanks to that ammo rule. The only way I'll go there is if I get a membership since I don't want to deal with hourly rates. However, if the ammo is unreasonable I would have no reason to keep going there so I wouldn't go at all.

My big concerns are shooters with odd calibers. What if they're out of stock on something? Are you just out of luck that day? Is "their" ammo factory or remanufactured? I just can't see that lasting.

I was really looking forward to that membership program, too. I'd be back on a weekly schedule if that place works out. Although...if they let me hang a tennis ball on the range I might reconsider...

I'm just going to keep heading the Shootist for the time being and try to remember to buy $10 of ammo for the range discount.

I could see restrictions on steel core on the pistol ranges, but what are they gonna do when the guy with the .32 H&R Magnum wants to go ventilate some paper? .32 NAA? 9x18 Ultra?

If someone wants to shoot their .357 Maximum tungsten core ram buster silhouette ammo, they can go over to the rifle side, but don't make me buy "range special" .45 ACP that my gun may not like...

I saw that right after I posted....weak.


will they let you collect brass?

If the business model is bad, they will fail or change. Their website is very good; they are remodeling or updating the range; they are offering creative training and seem to be the real deal re: ex-special forces with the goods. If you can come up with a better business model, let's talk and build it and take all the business. I plan on using them and maybe joining the club. I am really looking for a good outdoor range but the large amenable ones seem to be 2 hours outside of town. The park range near the tech center will suffice.

the shootist isn't bad, and its pretty close (10-15min east of this location).
