- Never walk or drive past any gates (open or closed), cables, safety cones, or barricades without checking to see if that area is a live-fire area.
- When going down range to paint steel targets make all ranges cease fire and use posted “downrange procedures” for each range. This requires visual and verbal confirmation that all firearms are clear and other members are off the firing line. No handling of firearms or ammunition while members are down range. Pistol bays do not need to cease fire when going down rifle ranges.
- Once the range is determined to be secure, with no other persons present downrange only then may firing commence.
- Keep all vehicles on the established roads and away from the lower laying areas. Avoid going down range after heavy rain. Do not drive or park on any sodded grass near the firing lines.

- All members are required to wear eye and hearing protection.
- Shoot from authorized firing points only. Each target must have a backstop before engaging. Do not shoot into the neighboring property.
