Range

Rules

See Range and Safety Rules Document for all requirements. Safe and responsible usage of the ranges is the sole responsibility of the Member, including their guests. The Club assumes no liability or responsibility for Member, non-member, or guest activities. 

General Range Rules-

Targets are restricted to paper, cardboard, or plastic bottles or jugs filled with water or compressed air. No soft drinks. No glass, appliances, or other materials may be used. Steel targets are allowed, but the shooter is responsible for proper placement of steel targets to ensure bullets and fragments impact the earthen berms and do not leave the range or ricochet off the premises. See Section 4 – Steel Target Rules. 

Targets and plastic bottle debris must be removed from the area after use or must be disposed of in trash receptacles. 

It is the member’s responsibility to provide their own paper targets and stapler to hang targets. Cardboard backers are provided and can be found next to the soft drink machine at the Club House. Center the paper targets to prevent damage to the target frames and high enough so the bullet will impact the earthen backstop and not the ground. Remove your targets after use and return useable cardboard to the cardboard bin. 

Absolutely no centerfire rifle or bottleneck calibers allowed on 10-Yard Pistol Range. 

No tracer, incendiary or exploding ammunition is allowed to be fired on the range. No concussion explosives such as Tannerite, Star, SureShot, Shockwave, or similar products may be exploded on the premises. Absolutely no glass containers of any type are allowed on the range. Shooting at rocks, glass, range props, equipment and/or furnishings is grounds for expulsion from the Club.

Shooting benches on any range are not to be moved forward of the designated firing line. No shooting into side berms is allowed without approval from the Executive Committee or club-designated Range Safety Officer. Do not climb any of the Club’s safety berms. The berms are there for your safety and protection.

Unsafe or damaged firearms are not allowed on the range.

Club members are responsible to clean up the range upon completion of shooting. Remove all targets from the downrange area. Pick up the brass around your shooting bench and place it in the brass bucket at the rear of the range. Feel free to leave fired centerfire brass on a bench for another shooter if you don’t reload ammunition. A dumpster for targets and cardboard is provided for your convenience.  Note: Dumpster is for JRGC use only. NO personal items except for range cleanup items may be put in the dumpster. 

Additional Range and Safety Rules may be posted as required on any of the firing lines. Please obey any posted rules or safety procedures as listed on these signs.
