Bill's north question

View · by **ranger** on Sat Nov 17, 2012 9:29 am

Planning a trip to Bill’s north (Circle Pines) one day next week and was just wondering if the range is heated more adequately now, than it used to be. The last time I there this time of year, wearing a jacket while shooting was mandatory….for my friend and me anyway. If I recall, we could even see our own breaths in the range area. Thanks

Shoot more. Warm up from your barrel. Problem solved.

I was there a month ago. I was in shorts and a short sleeve shirt. Fine for me.

The difficulty is air quality and air exchange. When I go to a busy indoor range I dress in layers. In deep winter I bring shooting gloves. Still Warner than shooting outdoors in deep winter

Somebody's auto-complete dictionary has been spending a lot of time on MGT. :lol:

Sorry guys, my original question was premature…..should have saved it until January when the outdoor temps are in the teens.

Anyway, I went to Bill’s north this morning around 10 am with a friend, and we both expended around 500 rounds of ammo and the range temperature was perfect. Almost every lane was occupied and we had a great time shooting and dodging flying brass.

BTW, Bill’s employees were very accommodating and friendly! All in all, a great morning

I was there yesterday, Sat. the 24th, and had a very nice time. It was cold outside, but comfortable in the store and in the range. Bill's North is close to where I am in Blaine and handy entertainment when the weather is uncomfortable.

SueAnn and I were assisted in our shopping and getting onto the range by a friendly, knowlegable associate, Charlie who also contributed to the comfortable atmosphere there.

We shot quite a few rounds, the entire experience was a good one, and I look forward to going back soon.

Tom, in Blaine

Now picture Sam with a grill, cap at an odd angle, throwing that out in true thug style. (DON'T picture the boxers and hanging pants ;-)
