I've always gone Leader-REctor. Is going east out of the CRC better? I went that way once, but I have no idea what exact roads I took. What keeps you on the pavement the most?

Rector-Leader rd is the road east of CRC entrance, 96th ave dead ends into it. Bridge work is west of entrance.

Most folks come in from Byers on Calhoun-Byers rd north from hwy 36 or 88th ave from hwy 79. Both routes end up on 96th ave west of the range.

Most pavement/least gravel is hwy 36 east to Rector-Leader, north to 96th ave, west to entrance. IMO.

Probably depends where you?re coming from. From my place it?s the most direct route. Google maps says 1 hour and 7 minutes. Coming in from the other side says 1 hour and 21 minutes.

My way is mostly paved but the dirt parts don?t bother me unless we?ve had a bunch of snow or rain.

It's about equal amount of dirt roads either way. However, the road coming in from 96 (bethrens and 88th) has some real slippery mud if it has recently rained at a 90 degree turn that will put you in the ditch if doing over 15 mph. From Bennet Taking 88/96 saved me about 6-7 minutes as opposed to hwy 36/rector-leader.

I need to start going the way Ray goes. I usually take I-70 to Bennett, then dirt roads from there. When the dirt roads are dry, doing 70 mph most the way is not out of the question. And doing 55 mph the whole way is not even uncomfortable.

My way takes me less than an hour if I fudge the speed limits a little.

All you fuckers that drive past my house should pay the toll by throwing ammo or mags in my yard as you go by. (112/79)

It's not a mag transfer if I find it in the ditch, right?

You might get more response with a little softer approach.

Just sayin'.

Better response with what caliber/s you need.
