February 19, 20188 yr There's a reason for that. Light target loads will have those little shot scatter all over the place, and potentially ricochet. Range 14 allows for light target loads - because it's outdoor.
February 19, 20188 yr Heh that's funny. Cherry ridge (outdoor range) is the complete opposite. Allows target loads only, no slugs no buckshotSent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

Or on the regular pistol range or 300 yard rifle?
February 19, 20188 yr shotgun range portion with the clays. as far as i know it's the only place there you can shoot shotguns? idk. SHOTGUN RANGE The shotgun range is to be used for shooting at aerial targets and patterning on paper targets. Only biodegradable clay targets are permitted. Slugs and buckshot ARE NOT allowed to be fired on this range. The use of shot size larger than 7 ½ bird shot is not allowed for aerial shooting.
February 19, 20188 yr Ah - Clay range yeah. Of course only target loads. Same thing at the WMA Shotgun ranges.
February 19, 20188 yr Same at any trap, skeet, or sporting clays club. If you are shooting above the horizon (i.e. no backstop) you don’t use buckshot or slugs.

No Buckshot.
February 19, 20188 yr Author Actually I just found this on the Bullet Hole website. Maybe it's a different backstop to prevent ricochet? __________________________________ The Bullet Hole boasts a range capable of handling high-powered rifles and pistols, and we are the ONLY area range that can handle shotguns of all calibers and shot types (buckshot, target and slugs).

February 19, 20188 yr True - BH does allow for that. Their range isn't that long and they make you shoot from the center lanes if you're using shotgun or rifle, so that may be why.
