If you can get a bay to yourself, or just for your group, it is really nice. The pistol bays are fairly short, so rifle use is limited. I was able to use any targets I wanted to take, including steel. I was able to setup my chronograph and get readings without worrying about shooting with a bunch of other people next to me. You get to change out targets when you want, and you can draw from a holster. This used to be my only option for a nearby range with these conditions. You just have to take the good with the bad. It was hard to swallow the $30 fee, but it was worth it vs. going to BLM land.
You can shoot great competitions at other places, and West end is 20 bucks per shooter, for non members. I tried competitions at west end, to see if I liked the range.
Rifle shooting was limited at Raahauges, so that wasn't really worth while.
Now that I have a membership at West End, I don't need to use Raahauges. The catch is buying a membership and getting in (there is a max of 1600 members allowed). I didn't bother with the partial membership at West End, because I wanted to use the private bays and 230 yard rifle range.
I can't completely bad mouth Raahauges, as it used to be a good place for me and it may serve others well, but some of us have found greener pastures.
