I'm seeing a disturbing trend in gun ranges. As urban sprawl progresses, I see more and more gun ranges closing down as they are surrounded by suburbs. I see evidence of this now in that there are a large amount of restrictions on what calibres one can use, no full auto, shrinking yardages. how many 1000+ yard ranges can you count in your area?
Most places I read about, or have been to, are restricted to class use, and too structured. I think rifleshooters especially need a place to stretch out.
My concept is to build a 2500m+ gun range with no restictions. Combine that with camping facilities (think state park or KOA campgrounds) for a weekend(or more) getaway shooting experience. Hold events once a month or so, and invite guest instructors for certain dates.
If you know of a place that exists like that in Texas, please let me know! I want to go! It's just a business idea I've been rolling around for a few months.
Any comments appreciated.
