I love this place. Every time I've been here, there's been other shooters. At first, I was nervous but they were very polite and a few were even helpful when my Father in Law's rifle jammed. Awesome place. Clean and quiet. The parking lot does get muddy during the spring and rainy times, so wear an old pair of shoes. This is our favorite place

I have to be honest with you, the power lines crackling with electricity rather close to your head are pretty disturbing. Otherwise, I don't have much to say about the range itself. A bit small, but I haven't seen it crowded. Appears to be a wasp nest out there somewhere. The place is trashed, but that just comes with an open range like this. It shouldn't be that way, but it is, because people are rude, inconsiderate, irresponsible, and lazy. This range is a bit out of my way and I don't get much time off these days, and yet I'm still tempted to go out there just to try to clean the place up a bit one of these days. We as gun owners need to step up and show our appreciation for these open ranges. They don't have RSOs hounding you 24/7 and your ammo and your gun are your choice. Places like this are a great privilege that we need to take some responsibility for because I know that if we don't, they'll just get shut down. Because nobody wants to clean up after someone else's mess. Beech Fork does you a favor by giving you a place to shoot outdoors where you will be treated as an adult and left alone to handle your business. The least you can do is take your trash away with you - including whatever fruits you've massacred out there - and sweep up some of your casings and <not> shoot the benches, the roof, or the pillars. I know some think that's too much to ask, but it's really not.

Great place to practice or site in your guns, day to dark hours of operations

Bring with you : 🚱 Water to Drink ( not avaliable ) Bug Spray ( for you and your Area ) Hearing protection for everyone with you ( people bring out some really big guns sometimes ) Broom ( shell casings everywhere underfoot ) Your own target and a stand for it ( a stand may or may not be there ) Eye Protection ( Safety Glasses ) ☡ ☢ Limit Lengthy Stays & Be Aware this area is directly underneath some very large overhead power lines, you can hear the "sizzle" of the spent casings and the "crackle" overhead. 📵 📴 Cell coverage "spotty" if available at all. ☠ Be Careful : Emergency services are NOT close by.

Last I remember was around 75 yards but I haven't been out there in probably 20 years so that could've changed.
