Re: Best Shot Rifle Range

The removable barriers between the shooting lanes will allow for some specialized training, including 4 position shooting. Of course, the benchrest allows for getting zeros with iron or optic sights. For those interested in carbine training, ping the Range and we'll schedule some courses accordingly.

Best Shot Rifle Range

Best Shot Range now has a 25 yard Rifle Range with 4 shooting lanes. Unlike many indoor ranges that allow limited rifle shooting, the Best Shot Rifle Range allows for any civilian rifle cartridge - .300 Win Mag, .338 Lapua, .460 Weatherby Magnum - essentially any hunting cartridge. The environmentally friendly "green" Bullet Traps are filled with ballistic rubber and rated for .50 BMG altho that cartridge is not permitted. There is no bullet splatter and no excessive lead dust. Another feature not found on many indoor ranges is each shooting lane is outfitted with a benchrest. This allows for shooting from a sitting position. Various rifle rests, sand bags and a lead sled are available. For the experienced rifleman, a Chronograph is setup on one lane to allow shooters to measure their bullet velocities. Cameras are aimed at each target to allow a closeup view that gives the shooter immediate feedback as to shot placement. For handloaders, the range is setup to be reloader friendly.

How effective is a 25 yard benchrest range? It allows for shooters to get "on paper" with a newly mounted scope or new ammunition. An AR-15 zeroed at 100 yards was fired on the range and it printed 2 inches low at 25 yards. For someone learning basic rifle skills they can get accumstomed to the recoil and the report. It doesn't matter whether it's nightime, raining, or blistering hot, shooting a high-power rifle indoors in a comfortable climate is available at Best Shot.
