This outdoor, 100 yard range is open Spring through Fall on the weekends for three 90 minute sessions per day. It always has six active Range Officers on duty and they are very friendly and quite helpful. The range is free to use, but it only has ten shooting stations and they are always full. Reservations can be made online starting on the preceding Monday. Walk-ins are accepted, but there are rarely any empty stations.JEBar wrote: ↑Fri Oct 25, 2019 12:30 pmwe also load our centerfire Henry rifles with the action closed and hammer down .... that would also be the case if we owned a Henry 22 .... to date the only state operated ranges we have visited have been in Missouri .... the only cautions in loading ours I've had about loading ours has been to keep the muzzle down range and close to level as possible .... both made sense to me and haven't proven to be difficult to follow
I resisted loading my rifle with the action open at first, explaining that HRA's User's Manual says that the H006M and H001 rifles should be loaded with the action closed and the hammer down. I was politely told to just follow directions. As it turned out, the rifle performed just fine with the action open...
