PS,
There probably aren't a handful of ranges in MA that allow CF rifles indoors. The only one I know of for sure is AFS and that's a commercial operation, not a club, thus higher cost.
BR&P only allows RF rifles indoors.
Just an FYI:
The MRA in Woburn allows center fire fifles indoors at 75 feet and .22 rimfire rifles at 50 feet without a round limit. Shotguns are limited to slugs and three rounds.
OUTDOOR RANGE UPDATE
The outdoor pistol range (and plinking range for .22's only) is now officially open.
We are awaiting the arrival of the steel for the overhead baffles for the middle range and expect work to begin on the middle range very soon. In the interim, the older pistol range will remain open and operational with a range officer present.
Modifications to this range have been substantial. All steel brackets and railroad ties were removed. Hanging targets have been installed and the bench tops have been replaced with removable tops. Extensive grading has occurred and topped with a combination of stone dust and rubber compound. The berms have been raised and an eyebrow installed to the berms to prevent bullet skips.
These modifications have been a major undertaking for the club, not to mention a major expense. The executive board has endeavored to make certain, to the best of our abilities, that bullets do not leave our property and to insure that the project was done correctly. Much gratitude goes to Joe Tamulis for overseeing this project.
Similar modifications will occur on the middle range, plus the construction of an additional overhead baffle.
Other projects at the club include renovations to out new indoor range HVAC system to include the addition a "diffuser" on the range makeup air behind the shooters to better regulate and more evenly distribute air flow.
Also, a new HVAC system has been designed and will be installed in the old indoor range with work to begin at the end of the summer.
Members meetings held on the second Monday of the month will continue through the summer.
