Stupid is as stupid does (part 2)!

Once again we had someone shooting at and damaging the the target holders on the 1/2/3/400 yard range.  The regular target frames were damaged by shots, a clip was damaged and cardboard was left hanging on the holders. USE the practice frames,which are to the right of the regular frames, that is why they are there!  Pick up your trash when you are done shooting!
