But I hardly go there because it's a 50/50 crap shoot on the kind of people you'll be shooting beside. Normally I'll park and watch a few minutes and decide what to do.

A few years ago a neighbor built a new house that really messed up my "pistol/22" range in my back yard. I miss living on a farm like the good ole days...that is until I get up and watch people go feed cattle in sub zero temps, or putting up fence and hay. LOL
