Default Hinton Range is Open

We have a old President as our 2014 Range Master and he is giving us our ranges plowed all year even in this snow filled year

here is some picture of the ranges with the new baffles and berms in place .. he is still working on the new 100 yard range(not plowed) which will have a 40 yard and 60 yard and 80 yard as well as a 100 yard shots from the table when he gets it certified this spring so watch for the opening of it in 2014

even the traps are ready

Thanks Bill and his helpers

David

Default Hinton Range

The 500 yd range is certified up to 50 BMG. The rest of the ranges are certified, for up to 338 lupua . Because the ranges are certified we can have restricted weapons again.

Thanks for posting all the pics ... Great set up. SPFGA does not plow down range, which means members need to wear boots.

True, but I bet Hinton doesn't have a blue mountain bike
