My friend is doing a couple of "small" rennovations on his place and was looking to get some classes out there.
This is what started as his "appleseed" range. It was 25yds deep and 150yds wide
at 25 yards deep
opened up to 50 yards deep
And this is the 100yd berm
He just started work on this road that will lead up to the 100 yd berm and if you look closely you will see the markers where the class room will be built. Another berm is going to be built on the left side of the 100yd berm to block off the class room.
And this shot is just to show how tall the berms are
The location is great since it's about equidistant from houston, waco, austin and just a little further from dallas. There are tons of hotels/motels as well.
UPDATE 11/29/09
Some more earth work since the last trip
area for the class room has been prepared for the slab
new berm seperating the 100yd bay from the class room
this was at 9am
and this was at 12pm
the road is 90% complete
the 50yd bay is coming along, you can see how tall the berm will be when finished
And the beginnings of a new shooting area
