Toughest Range To Shoot

[JFrank]

Those all sound really tough, which range is the Bunny?

Red Castle Tulsa.

 

[dkhunt14]

Whitehorse was fairly tough. Hawksridge can be tough. Williamsport is about the toughest, with Hawksridge a close second. Either one can make you shake your head. Matt

I’ve only shot in the UK and Blair Athol is very tough!

Well if being the bunny means an easy range to shoot, then I will go against the statement that everyone says their range is hardest. My home range of Cessnock in Australia is likely the easiest range I've shot on. It is nice and flat, so no humps and gullys etc. There are just enough big trees right along the range which are dense enough to filter out the wind, without being too dense as to cause the wind to go over the top and cause turbulence.

COSSA Range near Bend, OR and the range known as Rattlesnake near West Richmond, WA have made many a Long Range High Power High Master cry...

Not untypical winds at the Rattlesnake range. And some days you have 'rock days', where you need rocks to 'tie down' your mat. rifle cases, etc to keep them from blowing off the firing point.

There are special occurrences called the "Rattlesnake Clean" where all competitors miss the target.

I can honestly say I’ve missed the whole target and dealed many 7’s. Capitan would be the culprit. Stanton tx ain’t much better at times judging the bend on the flag poles. Lol. Sure there’s many humbling ranges out there.

The next one

They can all be tough at times but day in and day out, I've never seen a tougher range than Dry Branch in Dixon Springs, Tn. The more I travel to shoots, the more I like to drive!

That is funny !

 

[Bob Sebold]

Lodi, or Lo Hi can be a pain in the butt, Raton has handed me my arse, Conant in Canada has no useful flags and cute but highly questionable pullers, the easiest I have ever shot is La Crosse at 600 yrds, no wind most of the time, it cannot figure out how to get in there.

 

[Medic505]

Colorado Rifle Club in Byers CO is pretty challenging. Capitan is sporty also. Both places run excellent matches.

Greetings,
I will put WA States own Rattlesnake Mountain Shooting Facility 1000yd Range against any other in the USA. Where a clean is not getting a miss...

Yep. Nothing like showing up, putting 7 minutes of windage in and still holding on the edge of your board. But it’s still one of my favorite ranges to shoot.

Matt, I saw a whole relay get DQed. at Whitehorse I never saw that at Williamsport except for the time some shot early....... jim

 

[billshehane]

Try Byers Colorado 1000yds. or Sacramento Calif. 1000yd. line anytime after lunch. Just hope there are only enough for 1 or 2 relays and pray you are one of em.

 

[normmatzen]

I primarily shoot long range BR and I have only shot at Sacramento Shooting Center.
Every one that shoots there says if you can shoot at Sacramento, you can shoot anywhere!

Shot my first UBR there. I thought that was normal.

That's funny. I've heard that at my home range and pretty much every range I have shot at.

As one that Shoots a lot , Rattle Snake is not place for the weak at Heart.
Having said that I have Pulled two Reginal Medals at the Snake . One with a Palma Rifle shooting 155 Bullets.
And two weeks ago Gold with a .284 Open F/Class Rifle. The wind was up to most of its tricks.

Sacramento and Raton can be a crap shoot also.
Deep Creek Montana nice place to shoot ( Medal for me ).
DRRC Eagle Creek Oregon nice place to shoot also.
COSSA Bend Oregon , Rattle Snakes Younger Brother .

For those of you short range guys that want a challenge come over to Bell City this week end for a 2 day 100-200 yard score match. Flags on the range rarely agree and misses can't be explained by conditions, baffles some of the best.
