Looking for range in Alabama

Went and checked out the new range today! It’s gonna be awesome when done. Sucks I’m gonna have to wash my ride every time I go but…awesome!
It won't be like that once it's seeded and done though. For a while, yes it will be.

So the deal appears to be, New members will have an extra fee for the long range and there will be qualifying but a one time thing. Don't know what that fee will be, but thats being decided. I am going to go to the Feb meeting to get some info. People keep saying there's stuff on the website but I haven't found anything there.

One of my biggest gripes with the range is their lack of comms! They have no issue reaching me when they need money but I never receive any comms about anything going on or meetings or any of that. I’d tried for years to get it resolved and no such luck. So I have to rely on other members of board members to tell me things, only after I reach out. It kind of pisses me off. It shouldn’t be that hard to figure out. I will say, as of late, I have had better luck just checking the website. I sure would love to be able to fix the email issue tho! And I’m hoping that renewals go without any hiccups this year.
 
Just going to resurrect this real quick... Does BG really have 1,400 yards? I was Googling like crazy last summer for things besides Alabama Precision and couldn't find anything longer listed than about 500-700 or so.

I'm up 65 in Hartselle and currently belong to Strategic Edge in TN for long range stuff.
It is not ready yet but it is being worked on. The Hoover location is shut down. The new Pell City location is open but not complete yet. There have been some weather delays.

They have a range map on the web site: https://www.brocksgap.com/clientuploads/directory/documents/New_Range_Map_-_10-24.jpg

I would agree. I am a member. They recently had to send out separate communications to new members--the original did not go.... I might be able to help but I am not sure who to contact. :confused:

This is just the truth unfortunately. I have the same issues. If you want to meet me at the meeting in Feb and see what we can do to resolve this I'm game, it is very aggravating and it's been an issue for a long time. I think it will require someone who knows more about email and tech running that portion of things though.

What about DMR matches in Alabama?

Maybe there will be some DMR matches at Brock's Gap this year?

Are there any DMR style matches at the Talladega CMP or anywere else in AL?
 
I can find the Brock's GAP DMR matches easily on practiscore.

Where do you see about the Talladega CMP DMR matches or Steel City Precision DMR matches if they are available this year?
Yes, they have DMR matches at both and there is some on the books for Brocks this year. Check the schedule out. I think the first one is in April. Alabama Precision also does them, I believe.
