What is your choice of targets?

AR500 plates are best. Paper/cardboard are acceptable. Avoid clays. Dont forget to pick up the plastic wadding as well.


From the BLM website:

On location...

Shoot only retrievable, freestanding targets.

Shooting glass objects, electronic waste and items that may contain hazardous materials (i.e. freon, propane, etc.) is prohibited.

Do not attach targets to living plants or place targets up against rocks, plants, or solid objects. It is illegal to deface or destroy trees, signs, outbuildings, or other objects on federal lands that are for the public's enjoyment. CFR 8365.1-5 (a) (1) & (2).

Always pick up and remove targets, empty shells, and any other debris after you have finished.

Fines can range up to $475 so be responsible out there.
