  • All firearms must be unloaded and encased when brought into the HERO center and range. Legal permit to carry holders should keep their firearm holstered at all times until safely on the range.

  • For public use we only allow bulls-eye targets and DO NOT allow human silhouette targets. You may bring targets or purchase targets directly at HERO Center.  No exploding targets allowed. (Examples of ALLOWED targets are displayed below)

  • Rifles are allowed up to 300 Win. Mag.

  • You may bring your own ammunition but it must be in original packaging or in boxes clearly marked “range friendly”. No “mixed bag” ammo is allowed as we cannot have armor piercing rounds on the range.  Individuals who re-load their own ammo may bring a large bag of ammo but all ammo should be consistent with each round in your storage container.

  • All brass will remain at HERO Center, unless you reload ammo.  In this case any casings may be picked up in your immediate range stall.  If any brass goes beyond the range stall tray that will remain with HERO Center and you CANNOT go beyond the range tray/tables in the shooting stalls. 

  • No drawing from a holster. Only law enforcement or government agency members may draw from a holster; or anyone as required under the guidance of HERO Staff/instructors for specialized training requiring such action.

  • All weapons should be loaded at your shooting stall, using the shooting stall table/tray to place your weapon and ammunition for loading.

  • Shotguns will NOT be allowed. Due to our brass recycling program we have to limit shotgun usage to avoid wads in the trap system mixing with brass.
