In Response To: Re: Off Topic: thanks for keeping me sane (Brian Nystrom)

Hi Brian-

1. John Joines of the range safety dept (703) 267-1278

2. Sonia, who just replaced Lisa Fry, at general council office (703) 267-1250

The NRA Sourcebook, AKA the Range Manual, specifies a 1200' setback for shotgun ranges (approx 900' range for the pellets, plus 300' buffer for windage and topography).

The county only gave 300' setback, so we get the rain of lead.

The NRA is resistant to provide guidance letter to county, saying they do not enforce manual. (I'm not asking them to enforce, simply to inform and educate).

In a sense, it is all moot. The range has put so much lead into the property I suspect it will eventually be a Superfund site, and the trees are shot up already. Thanks for calling though, it can't hurt, and it might help. Joines is out of the office until next week. Mike
