Frank, It popped right up.  It didn't show in any of my searches because they were worded to find Rs accused of causing external damage and injuries. 

Looks like that was a short relatively easy fix.  The R I cited above in Hawaii was closed for over a year after the initial schedule was for a few months.  That was voluntary, not forced through litigation, ect.   It would be interesting to see if they  stopped the open field T setting and contain all the Bs directly behind the T. 

A R in NY lost a B over a 30' wall hitting a lady 200 yds away.  There were discussions for a while, then the land owner abruptly pulled their lease and they have to remove their buildings, clean up the site and get out    They just spent $40,000 on improvement last year!  The speculation was misuse of a metal target.  Looking on Goggle Earth close up, it looked like they had fac e climb ing issues, IMO.  Of course, we are a standards and credentials based society rather than performance based.  The gold standard is 20 foot high barrier.  Too bad the 30 foot high failed I doubt if 200 feet would have prevented this incident.  

Anyway, I would love to have some idea of how to get our N are A to tighten up their standards and quietly get this issue out to the clubs before the antis discover how easily they could capitalize on it. Given what they did here in WA with the B-ground check initiative, a S initiative designed to close most Rs would be a slam dunk!    We have protection from nuisance and noise in state law, but S is a the Achilles heel that can easily be exploited for less than noble purposes 

Here is an example of what scares me about N are A standards.  They claimed this guy met the standard according to a certified instructor.  Notice he has a pile of tires on the lawn for a back stop and side berm!  How can we survive this level ignorance?

If you zoom out, you will see the new homes on Wildwood Drive .5 to 1 mile down R.   They don’t like finding Bs in that area on the roads ;-( 

Click on the top link for the TV station.  The first footage shows the tires on the R. This is insane.  We need to remodel the N are A if they are to be the gold standard.

More power to you. Maybe he learned something.

I am concluding keeping the outdoor ranges of this country open in the face of undeniable evidence of escapes is a noble cause, but a lost cause.     One would think that concentrations of bullets in the vicinity of ranges would be sufficient to convince operators and officers of clubs to use sufficient backstops for containment and R prevention.  Even with careless shooting by the general public, bullets do not normally concentrate away from recreational areas.  

Anyway, this thread just showed up on a Goggle search. It is probably best for the moderators to delete it before the antis get any ideas from it.
