New Shooting Range Opens At Georgia’s Cedar Creek Wildlife Management Area

Georgia Department of Natural Resources

EATONTON, GA --(Ammoland.com)- A new shooting range at Cedar Creek Wildlife Management Area will be available beginning Friday, October 14, 2011 for those interested in perfecting their target skills.

While this is the first shooting range located at the Cedar Creek WMA, which is located in the Georgia Piedmont near Eatonton, it is one of 17 shooting ranges currently available on public land in Georgia.

The Cedar Creek Shooting Range consists of a 10-position, 100-yard rifle/pistol range.

The Cedar Creek Shooting Range was first proposed in November 1998 by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division.

Since that time, the U.S. Forest Service and Georgia DNR have worked together to plan for its construction. Support also was provided by the National Rifle Association, the National Wild Turkey Federation, Quail Unlimited and Putnam County.

The Cedar Creek Shooting Range is located near the intersection of Hwy 212 and Bradley Road and will be open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Thursday through Sunday year-round (except for Christmas and Thanksgiving Day). The range also will close if the range attendant is not currently on site.

To learn more about the range, visit www.fs.usda.gov/goto/conf/cedar-creek-shooting-range . For more information on archery ranges available in Georgia, visit www.georgiawildlife.com/node/922?cat=1 .

New Jersey Second Amendment Society

New Jersey --(Ammoland.com)- Belleville, NJ –(Ammoland.com)- We all know people who are curious about the proper, safe, responsible and *FUN* use of firearms for target shooting. Some may be interested in eventually learning how to use firearms for self-defense and defense of their family.

The New Jersey Second Amendment Society in cooperation with Gun For Hire Training Centers and The Bullet Hole Firing Range is sponsoring “A Day at the Range for Beginners”.

This is an opportunity for you to become familiar with the proper handling of firearms in a safe and controlled atmosphere with experienced, certified instructors guiding you at every step. There will be a variety of firearms available for you to choose from, and the only cost to participants will be for the ammunition they use.

This event is open to anyone interested in learning how to shoot. We will start with basic safety instruction at Gun For Hire Training Center, and then move to the Bullet Hole for live fire instruction.

We will have both male and female instructors available. I would like to invite all who are interested to register. We will need to know how many people are attending. Depending upon the response, we may schedule additional events throughout New Jersey. I encourage parents to bring their children. Our instructors have experience with people of all ages.
