CHECK YOUR AMMO BEFORE YOU COME TO THE RANGE!

Our Rangemasters really, really hate it when they touch a magnet to your bullets --
not the cartridge cases, but the actual projectiles -- and it STICKS!

We are in a National Forest, and bullets containing steel cannot be used on our range. We RSOs have no
choice in the matter: we have to advise you of the problem, and ensure that you do not use those bullets.
PLEASE CHECK YOUR BULLETS WITH A MAGNET, PREFERABLY BEFORE YOU BUY THEM!

  Target was damaged by the steel-core bullets shown here.

Hunting Ammunition Restrictions - Important Update!

Dateline: Monday, August 10, 2009

DFG News Release:
Nonlead Ammunition Regulation For Hunting In Condor Range Starts July 1.

Read Cal-Ert Update: Vote was 4-1 against the expansion of the lead-ammo ban (see above)!


Damage to 200-yard berm and bunker from .50-cal highpower rounds

Your .50BMG is welcome on the Range, but its effects on the berm are not!
The Chief Instructor reminds you that you are limited to using the National Match-style
practice frames (located in the unlocked bunker) with your own paper targets.
