Each of the 5 ranges available for public use and 3 ranges available to instructors are designed, tested and limited to be safely used by shooters using specific calibers in specific shooting platforms and practicing specific activities on each range.

After some new design work we can now allow AR-15 platform Pistols on the 25 or 50 yard Rifle Range when used in conjunction with a wrist brace, body harness or supported seated position (sandbags, etc.).

At this time Bracken Range DOES NOT have a public range designed for tactical style shooting.
