ok
went out and looked around
got to chat with mike a bit too
they didn't F up the target stand holes at 50 and 100!
25 yard targets are open
50 yard metal, free swinging gongs .22lr and black powder rifles ONLY
metal free swinging gongs are ok at 100 yards
rifle side and silly side full, but with short wait lists
didn't check pistol bay

so what they did at the berm is that they cleared 10 yards or so behind the 100 yard line
they then added dirt to the backstop to make it more vertical (though not 90 degrees)
you can actually see the tractor tread marks
they did NOT raise the berm 5 feet as originally planned

mike was all smiles this morning
i asked him if they were done for now, and he said yes
asked him about the extra 5 feet
he said he made a several page report and they are not going to do that part

he said that the biggest hazard from the eyebrow is that the angling down pieces of wood  are not cut flush with the eyebrow
on the left side, where the slope is not severe, they had to put warning flags on them because you can hit your head

he just smiled and made no comment when i told him the over/under for pukas in the eyebrow is 9 days

forgot to say
"unkle" was there
he had on this white tshirt that had a huge rip in it

Nice I can't wait to make it out and shoot.   Hopefully I can get a 25/ 50 yard target to zero my new .22
Macask you called 9 days...thats a pretty good bet.  Let us know if it makes it through the weekend.
I cant wait to check out new beach front property.  Give me a ecuess to wear my balaklava / head wrap.

Thanks boomah and mac for the overview! Shame you can't stand on the bench side, would like to shoot my shotgun at the 25yd ones and don't care to shoot slugs sitting down. I wonder if kneeling would be OK? Eyebrow does not seem exceptionally low.

You can stand and shoot if you want. No prohibition against that.

All is well in the world. Pau!

So just confirming, we can stand next to the bench like before and shoot?  Seems as some of the previous restrictions aren't happening, which is good!

Just be aware that you may be scrutinized via photo and blasted through media with keywords "high aim" "errant shots"
