BlueCore Shooting Center - Lakewood

[mrghost]

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.

Actually, their Range Rules PDF seems take it one step further:

"No outside ammunition for pistol or tactical rifle use. Personal ammunition is
allowed for precision rifle shooting after it has been inspected"

Bummer. I know that for me personally, nearly every time I (and friends) go a range, we will use up the ammo we brought in and due to the excitement, end up purchasing more on site.

BTW -- new member, first post here because I was googling places to shoot around Boulder Co.

Never got around to checking out Left Hand Canyon before it was closed down, but from what I usually heard about it, it didn't same like a place more responsible shooters tended to gather anyway.

I did, however, check out Green Mountain Family Shooting center about a year ago to sight in my SU16CA. The guy monitoring the rifle lanes was pretty friendly but I recall the lady working there puffing her chest (so to speak) unnecessarily. And yeah, it was pretty loud in there!

If there's a place around Nederland that anybody knows about, I'd rather drive up there than the traffic to the Silver Bullet...

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.

I was going to head down there to check out the range and retail, but probably won't shoot. End of the month and all...

I'll post in this thread with what I find, but I'm sure I won't be the only active user there.

Please do. Getting smashed this weekend at my little brothers 21st birthday, so I won't be very sober to shoot a gun

Not necessarily a bad thing. Keeps the rif-raff and yahoos away. Paid membership and a locked gate helps too, but morons are generally too lazy to drive that far and that long to go act like fools at a range. www.blgc.org

I was looking on there website and was a little bummed, they want you to buy their ammo to use the pistol range and am willing to bet its not going to be cheap

While I kind of understand them trying to sell their ammo. It kind of defeats what most of us here try to do by either reloading or searching for ammo deals.That's keeping our shooting costs down,especially on range time. I guess I'm waiting to see what they're charging for ammo by someone who actually goes there.JMHO

I agree 100%

Well I just may be in a position to provide a report soon as it looks like I'll need to be sighting in a new Arsenal AK and I don't know of a better option for that particular task at this time.
