    losing Roys Hill Range

    Vince the regional council guy who built the range was telling me there are issues with shooters in the quarry and not giving way to quarry traffic. We will lose the range if we piss the quarry off.

    Great, the usual story of a few bad apples potentially ruining it for everyone. Hope it gets sorted.

    I cant believe the rubbish and crap that gets left there as well...but that doesn't worry the Reg Council,,,its just the quarry operation. We need to police the range ourselves...and the Regional Council can issue trespass notices to offenders.

    If it comes to that I reckon they should change the locks and make it booking only...outside work hours...with the extra range they were considering...better than nothing. I don't know how those guys work with us hammering away.

    Same old story, a few disrespectful cunts shitting in their own nest affecting all those who also frequent said nest.

    If it begins to affect the Winstone operation or is raised as a safety issue by the quarry workers we can all kiss this excellent facility good bye.

    Cheers
