    I have lost access to the land I usually sight a rifle on due to a sale.
    Closest / best range to Baton Rouge?
    I will drive a clip for a good range.
    Sherburn open?
    Anyone with personal experience with Bridgewater? I will be glad to join if there is a good review from here.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Two rifles I can’t even put a zero on.

    Bridgewater is nice. I've only shot on the rifle range a few times and have good experiences both times. One thing to keep in mind is that their rifle/pistol range is a bit small and can't accommodate many people at once. I'm a bit fan of their new shotgun setup and would definitely recommend it.

    As for indoor ranges, I'm a big fan of FRC. Their range only goes to 25 yards, so you won't be able to do a 'true' 50 yard zero, though you can certainly math it out at 25.

    Thank you, Austin. Yes I enjoy FRC for pistol. That’s my plan to do a 25y zero there at this point if someone isn’t like “ how could you not know about such and such”
    I did a drive through at Bridgewater and yes rifle and pistol looks small.
    Agree, looks great for a clay shooter.

    Tony, a 50 yd initial zero is 1” low at 25 yds.

    You’re welcome.

    There is actually a place on line that has targets to get zeros like that. I’ll see if I can find it
