Know Before You Go
Following the set range rules is important to maintaining a safe and quality environment for all visitors.
- Shooters can shoot prone, standing or sitting.
- Eye and ear protection is required and all guns must be in a case.
- Please unload magazines prior to visiting the range, as each bullet will be checked.
- The cartridge case can be any metal commonly used by ammunition manufacturers excluding steel.
- Rifles
- Shotguns
- Pistols
- Muzzleloaders
Pistol range allows:
- Shotguns with slugs only
- BB and pellet rifles (spring or air)
Colorado Clays does not allow use of any of the following types of ammunition:
- armor piercing
- tracer
- Incendiary
- steel jacketed
- steel cased
- steel core projectiles
The projectiles must be lead core bullets with or without a copper jacket. Check your bullets with a magnet. If it sticks, you won’t be allowed to use that bullet at our range. For example, most of the bullets for a 7.62X39 and 7.62X54 Russian have a steel jacket with a thin copper electroplate finish that makes the bullet appear to be copper jacketed. Also, M855 “Green Tips” in 5.56 NATO have a copper jacket, with a lead core, and a steel penetrator tip. None of these bullets will pass the magnet test and none of them are allowed on our range.
