Safety

Safety should always be your first priority when shooting. Be sure to pick a safe location when setting up your range. Keep in mind what will be on the other side of your target.

Strongly consider setting up a backstop with a mound of dirt or a wood pile. A minimum height of 15 feet for the dirt is acceptable for a backstop but 20 to 25 feet is highly recommended. This height is the compacted or settled height. Height should also be consistent with other barriers that may be incorporated into the range design.

As always, wear eye and hearing protection when you are shooting.

Enjoy hunting and stay safe!
