I’m about to start useing the range again. I don’t want to be fighting over seats on a sat morning. Is it much quieter during the weekdays. I would rather take time off work so i can have some space

Yes much quieter than the weekends but make sure you check ot the calender as the range is used for competitions during the week. Also i generally give ot a miss during school holidays as thats their busiest time

Thank you. I think by thurs arv I will have formed the opinion that I have done enough work for the week and that at 49 I will be old enough to join the old blokes club so looks like Friday’s for me

Like the others have said weekdays are heaps better than weekends, and fridays are good as they are open from the morning. i only go when i need to sight in and only go on weekdays and have never had to wait for a bench and it's usually about half full, i went a couple of fridays ago and it was the busiest i've ever seen it and there were still 2 spare benches to choose from.
I'm told weekends can really suck but have never tried it out.
