Hot Wells upgraded benches

[acorneau]

Just saw this on Facebook...

According to the comments this is 25 yards and 100 yards from the same benches. (No idea about 50 yards though.) Also says their fees are the same as they were prior to the upgraded benches.


I've been to Hot Wells only once several years ago but remember their wooden benches being one of the things that were in desperate need of upgrading. Can't say anything else about the range's facilities or policies but the concrete benches are a step in the right direction.

By golly, that's nice!

Those look good.

I expect benches like that on your range.

You know, if I am not too old to shoot before it is done.

WoW that's nice , just might go back there and do some shooting again.
Havn't been there since the ladies that ran it passed on.

Gonna have to check it out.

Anyone who braves 290 these days deserves a nice place to shoot.

I invited you over to help.
You declined.

I was there last weekend and all of the rifle range was closed until they are completed. I would call before you go try to shoot. What was done does look very nice.

I was busy being out of town. I offered once too and you blew me off.

Then you had somebody else come there to help. That really hurt since it was a ginger.

Unfriended.

That's pretty nice, and perfect for zero'ing a rifle. I will be there this weekend.

Cypress, far NW Houston on HWY-290.

I wonder if they're going to put in the goofball overhangs again? I hope not, much nicer this way!

I just need to make sure to bring a few towels to protect the pretty finish on my snipper riffles from that concrete bench.

Do they still have the rule about three seconds between shots?

EDIT: their site still says two seconds between shots on the pistol range.

How is the crowd out there now? I've heard so rumors of groups I'd rather not be around with guns.

Last time I was there, it was nothing but families.

I think they are replacing the benches as a result of a lot of stuff being damaged in the floods back in April... The building is also torn down and they are operating out of a trailer. I was just there on the pistol range this past weekend with my kids. We got there fairly early on a Saturday so it wasn't busy at first, but by the time we were done there were quite a few people; lots of ladies and a few kids too.

I go there occasionally because it's close and they charge by the gun and not by the person. So both my kids and wife were shooting the little .22 and it was only $10 for the one gun. Yes, they are still overly sensitive to how fast you shoot. Seems like every time we're there I get tapped on the shoulder and advised that there is no "rapid fire" allowed. (They expect a full 2 to 3 seconds between shots.)
