Nice article indeed, DR. I was a member during the initial stages of this effort, and I am pleased to see it come to culmination.

I was surprised by a couple of things:
1. Sam May is no longer President. He must have wanted to step down as he was Pres the whole time I was a member
2. Although they talked CAS, the range is clearly configured for other purposes. This is a reflection of the "old school" mindset of that club. I would have preferred to see a mixed use setup where you can build an IPSC type course that shoots more than 1 direction.

The range over here in the eastern side of the state is nearing completion and should open this winter. I am looking forward to doing some paper punching now that ammo is back on the shelves - assuming I get a job to cover the inflated costs that is.

I would have been nice to see range prices in the article, since they were already there and could let it be known.  As to the one on the east side of the state, here in Fargo, Pathfinder I know what you mean, as far as I've heard it will be expensive to shoot there.  Which means I will probably just be using the Castleton range, even in the winter.
