With great ranges come great responsibilities and everyone must do their part. We all must be alert to range rule violations (don’t take it upon yourself to decide which rule should be obeyed).
We have a whole pascel of certified Range Officers (and continue to look for more). These folks have devoted personal time and resources to this cause and we should all be grateful.
If approached by an RO, you always have the right to challenge their opinions (go to Dudley or the Board) but not their authority. Treat them with the respect they deserve. Our wonderful facilities have brought out record numbers of members, and we couldn’t be happier. But always keep in mind that our highest priority is safety.

Dud
Collection Tube: We have a dud round collection tube
on the range. It is painted yellow and red for easy identification
and is located between the 25 and 50 yard ranges behind the red
shed.
Click on the thumbnail for a larger picture.
If you find an unfired round laying on the ground, instead of throwing it into the trash can to be burned, where it can detonate, simply put the unfired round into the top of the tube where it will be neutralized by a liquid.
When the tube is full, it will be removed and the contents will be disposed of properly.
