I will second the point about real bathrooms.

My biggest interest is the range distances that you will be offering.
Being so close to the metro area what is your maximum distance rifle range available?
Would you offer steel targets or electronic scoring like CMP?
Love the idea! The most important thing to me is to have it setup to be very safe. Classes for beginners would be a great way to draw interest to the range and to guns/self defense in general. I get so tired of hearing people say they are scared of guns because they kill people and the same people text and drive. Education is priceless. Having a setup where folks could learn and practice to target and shoot while moving, something you cant do on a normal range.
Would it be to much to ask where this is being placed? I live in unincorporated south Fulton county.
If you have the space both range and parking look at what is involved in at getting a GSSF outdoor match. They draw a lot of entries and there used to be 5 within 2 hours now there is 1 within 2 hours and 3 within 3 hours.
Would hold your own 2 gun match. Make the rules harsh but fair
1. Great idea
2. Yes
3. A fair fee would depend on your offering. The nicer the facility/better services the more I would be willing to pay. I pay $80 a month to belong to my sailing club in Flowery Branch, and they have a clubhouse, regular events, racing, beach, camping, and boat storage (extra fee) camps for kids (extra fee). We go there almost every weekend in the summer, so its a great value.
4. Not sure on the courses...wouldn't mind checking them out.
5. Product demo's - cool, I would come check them out.
6. Not an instructor.
Other ideas, comments. - Would you consider a "kids" day? Maybe only allow 22 shooting, maybe a suppressed only time? I havent gotten my 8 year old into shooting yet, but want to.
Shooting stuff other than paper, more reactive targets would be more interesting for me. Longer range, automated ranges like CMP would be great too.
Instruction on long range shooting would be a bonus, instruction demo's on reloading - bonus. Instruction/classes on gunsmithing - bonus. Female focused classes/ self defense instruction - bonus.
Will your range be available for outside instructors, such as cmshoot and me, to hold classes (with a range fee of course)?
An outdoor range down in that area would be fantastic. I would definitely be interested in renting the range(s) for courses that I teach, and I’m always looking for good outdoor ranges to send my students to for practice.
In addition to some of the questions asked already, I’m curious about how many and what type of ranges you are looking to build.
I’ve helped design and build a lot of ranges over the years, from my time in the Corps, up through 1,000yd ranges and shoothouses. If you need any help at all, don’t hesitate to holler at me.
HELL YEAH! Oorah, Devil. We welcome the assistance. Let me know if you're available Saturdays, that's when we usually shoot.
The area is 10 acres for now and we plan to buy more. The setup will be 2 pistol ranges (approx 40m x 30m) and 1 large range (approx 85m x 250m). All ranges will have 3 berms for multi-angle engagement. Ideally, we'd like to get enough land to have a vehicle course and shoot house.
