• "Ceasefires" may be called by mutual consent of all shooters on the line, when Red cease-fire lights lit, by an RSO, or immediately by anyone if safety warrants it. Any command of "Ceasefire" needs to be immediately obeyed by all shooters. All firearms should be immediately "tabled" and not handled until all clear is called.
• The Delton Sportsman's Club reserves the right to inspect any firearm or ammunition being used on the ranges.
• Cross firing of targets is not allowed.
• All firing must be aimed fire.
• You will be asked to leave if someone sees you not following these rules.
• All fired projectiles must come to rest in the "Impact Berm" immediately after passing through the target. Target holders should be adjusted to ensure this. No projectiles should contact the ground prior to entering the berm. Skipping or ricocheting projectiles into the berm is not allowed.
• All shooters are responsible for cleaning up after themselves. If you brought it with you, take it with you when you leave or dispose of it in the proper waste containers.
