Guys,
I just saw this thread. Everything is open at Dead Zero except for the high power range. We are working hard on getting it finished. There is about 150,000yds of dirt to move so it is a big endeavor. After surveying the work last weekend, I believe it will be May or June before it is complete. The rain and super cold weather has slowed us down. You can't compact berms with frozen dirt. I am a Commercial/Industrial Construction Manager for a local General Contractor. I can tell you without hesitation that the owner wants to build the best High power range possible. We spent a year planning it. He will not rush construction and produce an inferior product just to get it complete.
We will host high power prone and F Class, benchrest, fullbore, Palma, ATC, and maybe even some 300 meter matches. I will run the prone/Fclass matches. 1 day match fees will be well under $50. I am working on a schedule, but need to make sure we don't plan too early for completion. I have schedules for Mid South Marksmen at AEDC and ORSA as well. I will schedule around matches them. Both venues hold great matches and the directors are first class. We will add opportunities to shoot when matches aren't scheduled there. I promise that everyone will know well in advance of our opening. As far as I know, it will be the only North facing 1,000yd range in the Southeast. Stay tuned, and feel free to ask any questions.
