What am I missing here? I've been to Jacob's Plain and didn't care for it at all.

The day.

The land payment is $860 a month, me charging $40 for a shooter to have the place to himself for a day is more than reasonable.

Just a question. I wasn't implying that it was too much. I am a member here for 50 a month but it only goes to 200 max. I know in your neck of the woods that places are way more scarce than they are here, especially one with distances like yours. No offense meant.

Exactly. I have berms every hundred to 800, an elevated covered platform, steel everywhere but a hundred. It takes lots of work to keep it up. I have very few people that I let shoot there, so I think I'm fair.

When was the last time you went to Jacob's?

Jacobs is within an hour of my house.
1100 yard range.
4 shooting lanes over several degrees from one shooting position.
one lane has steel at 450, 550, 650, 750
next lane has 400,500, 600-1100
next lane has steel at 475,575,675,775,875, and 1k
I'm not sure about the other lane.

And they have several barricades to shoot from.

What other place in DFW offers this? Because I sure haven't found it yet. At tacpro, everyone has to shoot at the same distances. At jacobs I can transition between 475 and 875 on one lane, and then pan over and shoot 650 on another lane without disrupting anyone.

The only other option is to join the TXPRC and shoot local comps.

How much is Jacobs to shoot?

Looks nice... Already belong to TSDA, just wish I could go further than 300 yards there. I need two range memberships like another hole in the head.

I have shot at JG's place several times and it is more than fair. The other huge benefit is that I have already used up most of the misses on his range so your outing should be successful. peep
