Having tried to work on establishing a range it’s a massive pain the butt; finding land that might be available and the not in my back yard issues are huge. Keeping them clean, staffing etc are just more and more problems that pop up. I’d also wager a large chunk of shooters really don’t want to shoot at an organized range with rulesThat's all cool but it's a small bone thrown at target shooters who are providing a larger and larger portion of conservation funding through the excise tax. Over the last decade, recreational shooting has flourished even without PR funds. In contrast, hunter numbers have flatline over the last decade.
