If you are on SH, you probably saw this: http://crci.org/Portals/15/Content/F...20of%20the.pdf

As a result, I put together a draft proposal to construct a new range. If you like the idea, or want to offer help/suggestions, drop me a PM and when the collective likes the proposal I will add names and member numbers and run it up the flagpole. Can't promise anything, but at least it will re-start the conversation from a few years ago:

LR Steel Range Proposal
The CRC high power range has been utilized for persons who desire to shoot long range steel, however, some recent problems have occurred. This proposal seeks to:
1. Address the interests of the wide array of range members
2. Allow those who desire to shoot steel at CRC that opportunity
3. Minimize policing of the ranges and member conflicts
4. Minimize costs to CRC for maintenance of this range.
The proposal is to create a new range between East Range berm 1 and the Silhouette range. The firing line would face due North on the section line. Berms would be constructed at distances of 200 yards, 600 yards, 800 yards, 1000 yards and 1200 yards. The firing line will be uncovered and defined by signage and boxed in flattened earth approximately 20 yards N-S and 40 yards E-W. On the East edge of this area, a roof, a barricade and a doghouse will be constructed and utilized as shooting positions.
This range should be restricted to use by members with known or demonstrated ability only who provide and use their own AR500 steel. A lockbox will be constructed and only those with demonstrated or known skill will be provided the lock combination. When the box is closed, a “RANGE CLOSED” sign will be displayed. When the box is open, a “RANGE HOT” sign will be displayed. A bound book will be inside the box with sign-in and sign out entries. The only impact would be on the Silhouette range to place and collect steel, which should take no more than 10 minutes.
CRC members who have competed competently at CRC matches that require shooting beyond 300 yards or who can so demonstrate that competence, will be provided with the lockbox combination and be re required to sign a terms of use for this range. The combination will be changed annually, or if a person is no longer allowed to use this range.
Other than the construction of the berms, the members bringing this proposal will furnish the time, labor and material to construct the shooting line, lockbox and constructed shooting positions. We will also create a safety protocol and conditions of use agreement for CRC BOD approval. Further, it is anticipated that this range, once completed, will also have a monthly match.
We believe that a dedicated long range steel range is practical, will generate income for the club, and will solve some of the issues that have occurred by incompetent persons using steel on the High power range. Once this range is completed, the High Power range steel use allowance could be modified.
