When putting up your targets, make sure your target is centered on the backing so the bullet does not go through the wood holding up the backing.

Ceasefires and Target Changes
-
When you are ready to move downrange to put up or change out targets, make sure you unload and remove your magazines, insert your chamber flag into the chamber of the firearm, set the firearm down at the stall/bench with muzzle pointed downrange, collect your tape and targets and step off the concrete pad behind the red line. Inform the RSO that you want to call for a ceasefire.
-
NOBODY should cross the RED firing line when there is a ceasefire.
-
The Range Safety Officers will check to see if all firearms are unloaded and have Chamber Flags. Once everything is clear, the RSO will call “Range is COLD.”
-
Once everyone has returned from down range, the RSO will take a visual of the range to ensure it’s clear. Once more, a line of communication will be “All clear. Range is HOT.” Only then can all shooters approach their designated stalls/benches, handle their firearms, and commence firing.
