If they do finally get the go ahead it puts even heavier traffic on weekends on the basin road ( it’s a &$&@ show already) plus 90% of the dips that shoot up the basin won’t use a range as they would rather spray and pray style shoot and leave a big mess
And the nudy looney colony are fighting it big time
The positive would be if they shut down all non range shooting up there
