The whole goal of that range was to keep everyone safe. this is just one example of many that I personally witnessed up there.
as for the person that says that they are taking away a training range for the public. Dude you must not live here. there are many ranges in the area so get a grip on reality. the weber complex is far superior to WSA and have legit long range shooting so stop the drama my llama

No need to perpetuate rumors and give a false report of what was happening.
The issue with the 1000 yard target was shutdown as soon as the board was made aware of it. I was at the WSA board meeting when that happened. Nobody has ever been allowed to shoot outside the fence line.
WSA and the county had several issues on both sides. WSA decided to pull out, and nobody was left to run the range. There is a movement to get the range reopened, but government is extremely slow, budgets, etc.
