Where can I sight in my rifle?

To avoid errant shots hitting the ground, or missing the backstop on Range 4, when sighting in a rifle, scope or optic, the club suggests the following procedure:

Set up on Range 5A bench
set target at 25 yards
Take a few shots to get on target
The distance to the backstop is closer and in effect higher. More likely to contain an errant shot
Once on target, you can move to other ranges
