Zero on an AK is 50 yards-ish.



Use the official way to zero an AK - 100 yds is close enough to 100m.

Saturday, Sunday  8 to 4.
Week days closed for now. Schedule may be subject to change.

And you got to sign in in person in the morning for a time slot later that day.

My preferred zero on ARs is 50 yards  :(

I hope they open weekdays soon.  Even on weekdays, on certain days by 11:30 all tables are taken before the first session at 12:00.

Might not be as crowded with the new rules.  Must be present to sign in.  No more reserving tables for friends.  Only 3 relays per time slot so people would be coming and going.  Maybe they’ll reconsider some of the discussed rules.

3 relays? Would that be 2 hours at a bench or hour and a 1/2 at a time?

I guess you could still shoot at 50 yards and be in compliance.  Just get a 15' high target stand so your shots go into the 100 yard backstop.

it's a park, right? Bring the bbq and podagee horseshoes. Turn it into a party every weekend.
I’m becoming clinically undepressed and thinking about beginning it all.

Would be nice if somehow they can open all the benches.  Every time I go they chain off the end opposite the pistol range.

That would help.

Good idea QS.
Maybe a berm can be added to the 50 meter line, on the unused far right of the rifle range, or  the left, or center of the rifle range..
Use of the 50 meter line can speed up the zeroing in process and allow more shooters to use the range. Just a thought..

So they expect everyone to arrive before 7AM, queue up, and then sign up for a time slot? No way I'm driving from the west side all the way to Kokohead at the buttcrack of dawn and then potentially have to come back hours later for my assigned time.

This isn't a bug in their strategy plan, its a feature.  >:(

I think you can sign up anytime after 7.  If you arrive after 10, and the next opening is at 1:00, you can leave and return in time to make the 1:00 slot.

I think this is an improvement over the old system.  Before, if you showed up at 10 and there's a waiting list, you put you name on it when you arrive and hang around until it's your turn.

If the wait is relatively long, you could be at the range for an hour or 2 -- or more -- waiting for a spot to open up.  With the new system, you're signed up for a specific time and can leave and return if it's a long wait.

That's how i see it, anyway.  Nobody says you have to show up at 7am.  But, if all the slots that day are already taken before you get there at 10, you're out of luck.

Limiting how much time each reservation can take is also a good thing because the days are cut to only Sat & Sun.  That's going to create much more weekend demand.

the priority for reopening the range wasn't for the public obviously, it's for the City admin and other govt users.

Notice the time slots…1hr 19min with 3 relays.  After you s
Shooting your time dlot you clean up and then if you want to shoot more go in the line and sign up for another time slot.  Hopefully they open up weekdays to relieve the weekend congestion.

Heard reason for this is staffing issues ie.  19hr work limit.

Upon openning schedule for range use is to accommodate shooter so more can have range usage. This is subject to change as more workers are hired.
