I am very happy with the ideas around 22lr ipsc rifle matches which make it much more available to a lot more people without the costs. Anything from more basic ruger 10/22 to something a bit more expensive thats more 'tactical' and suited to putting a 22 upper on your AR. Most people will be able to participate without a huge cost and I think it will be popular there.

I know my 11 year old will be doing that until he is more capable with a 223.

The cost does seem high but IMO only relative to a couple other local facilities. When you consider the extra 40-50 hours per week potential shooting you can get there it doesn't seem like a lot to me. Granted a lot of people here shoot rifle and if you want long distance, it's not there just yet.

Great opportunity to get in to pistol shooting while you wait

membership will expand (mainly rifle shooters) as the facility expands. I cant justify the cost for the ranges available yet. It has amazing potential and I probably will end up applying for membership.
