i normally go around 1 or 2. usually pretty empty both the rifle and pistol side.

You guys know you can shoot in between the benches right?  Just look for someone shooting non-muzzle break bolt actions rifles and you're good to go.

Yeah, it's nap time for the guys up at 0500

1st time going to the range in the morning about 7:30am & all benches was taken, somehow it was hella full today & already had a waiting list. I wasnt gonna wait for a couple hours for a bench so i figure I walk the line & see if I could find some friends & just so happen there was 1 of them on the right side of the range so he told me to jump in with him since he was the only 1 on the bench. Got to meet some kool guys the side i was on also so it was a good morning, i was the guy wearing a red Manny Pacquiao logo t-shirt in case you were wondering, I know some of you I met are in this forum too  Never again ill go in the morning unless i get there at 5:30-6am lol.. As some of you were posting about these clowns shooting 1-2 rounds then talking stories especially with a long waiting list today, I seen that too & it really pisses me off also. Can't the RO's regulate these clowns that do that? Shooting range is to do your thing, shoot away then leave. These guys wanna talk stories go to McDonalds, Jack In The Box & do that crap.

That's true LOL.. they loved the food last time, they asked me if next time I take them to the range will my friends be there to bring food again 

Stop telling people to go late, that's when I go..when I go!

Last time I was there some guy took 5 mins per shot and following his shot took about 30 seconds to pull the bolt back to make sure he caught the round..
awesome.

theres other ranges avail to civies that are open on certain weekends. No waiting for benches and can shoot beyond 100 yards.

Puuloa. We only had about 11 shooters yesterday. Yes. civies are welcome as long as you obey rules and respect the fact that we are guests of the Marine Corps...a little more work setting up targets but there is no wait, no benches and plenty of sunshine.

Yes, more sunshine than you could ever ask for.

I'm allegic to the sun...

They should have time limits, say about 2 hours when there is a waiting list

exactly what the "only public range"needs, MORE RULES..how about only one gun & 20 rounds while were at it

Meh. If I get there early, wait my turn and get a bench, I'm shooting until I'm done. I usually don't take that long, but if I have multiple long guns, I might take a while. I personally don't take any longer than I need to. I do talk story some near the end of a string, but I'm mostly shooting.

I see the people who shoot a round or two per string, but I think in general, people are good about doing what they need to go and get out.

thanks ren

thanks ren

no prob. We have the opposite problem at Puuloa - we schedule range days and we have problem with people showing up to shoot. Now at the moment we cater to the highpower crowd but I was thinking about proposing a more informal day such as Kokohead. Setup up your own target (very big ones - I think they are 5'x5') and shooters spot their own shots. No pit duty and we call a cease fire every 15 mins. to repair or check targets.  Caliber is still limited to 308 or 3006. We can start at the 200 yd line and end the day at 600.
