Our first match will be held September 27 & 28, 2008.

Note: The Police National Championships will be ending on Thursday, September 25, so you cannot set up until Thursday night and no shooting until Friday, September 26. To shoot on Friday, there will be a fee of $6.00.

Match fees will be $90.00 for both days and the schedule is as follows:

Saturday: LV100 in the morning & HV100 in the afternoon, start 9:00am

We have 30 (new) benches on the firing line, large secure loading building, water, indoor restrooms, air-conditioning, electricity and paved roads.

The range faces NORTH

Loading tables will be supplied, however, we are unsure how many we are getting at this time, so, if you have room, please bring a table for loading & cleaning.

No pound rule

I want to keep are brand new shiny benchs in good shape,so we have a no pound rule(beating rest into bench)If you do not have any super feet we may have some extra sets to use for those who do not have a set yet.Thanks Todd
 
Motels and directions

I have been getting calls regarding Motels and directions for the shoot next week. The motels listed by Todd are all at the southwest corner of Coors/ I-40 and only 5 miles from the turnoff to the range. Also, range directions are listed at the openspace web site. (see Todd's post) If anyone needs additional info let Todd or I know. Ed
 
GPS info

Ed: do you have GPS coordinates for the range, or maybe Todd could test drive a customer's Sienna to the range and get them?;)
That would help a lot.

Beautiful range. Great to see a new range come on board. City owned? Municipalities around the country should take a lesson. Did Albuquerque's Chief Operations Officer have anything to do with this venue?

Ed, are you planting the grass and maple trees this fall? :D I know, tell the ^^$@@#&*)&* easterner to shut up!

A tree for the Easterner

Jeff, I'm working on the trees and grass, but thought I should wait until our annual rain fall exceeds 8", currently our last 100 year average is still about 7 1/2" per year. I will let you plant your very own tree, if you come to our shoot next week. Yes, the City owns the range. Ed
