Makes you wonder about all the other potential ranges that may pop up in the area in future.
We had the other problem with suburbia creeping into the area of a long established range - safety complaints were unfounded so mainly complaints about noise now. Moron house buyers obviously didn't hear the gun fire during the inspections. We were here first and are winning the battle - they've been whinging for a long time now but seem to be able to cry themselves to sleep at night okay.
we have plenty of other ranges out here and no issue with them, one guy shoots nightly another 15 minutes he should be starting up in fact ... no issue at all
The issue with this one is it is aimed at houses and he has NO upper berm at all he has a hole he dug out and that is great if you were firing a hand gun down in the hole but when you are shooting a 50 bmg and your are a 100 yds down range also on level ground and you have no upper berm or back stop that is reckless. Any rifle actually you would shoot from down on the level ground because if you're site is off then where is that stray heading?
We could argue that our house was here first as well all the other other houses out here minus the 4 new additions that just went up the past few year and he admitted he could see our house when he dug his range so why would one point in in the one direction that has nothing but houses? He didn't want to point it in the direction that was aimed at literally nothing there is a 5 acre, then a 10 acre which butts up to a 100 acre trust no houses on any of them and we asked him to face it that way and he felt he would lose 25 ft and didn't want to do that so it's not the houses out here weren't willing to try to work with him, there was only one house that was truly upset about the noise and we had him to the point he was willing to settle for him turning him but now that man is on a mission, if you all think I'm ruthless, be glad he won't waste his time on social media he is busy contacting engineers, experts, the attorney... he is retired and making a full new career out of this.
