There is a large concrete pipe sticking out of the ground above and to the left of the impact area on the rifle range. This pipe is an important part of our drainage system. If it breaks because people shoot at it, the club will have an expensive and difficult repair job. If we know who shoots a hole in it, we will charge them for the replacement. Also, shots that hit the pipe ricochet unpredictably and could injure someone off the range, or cause a fire in the surrounding woods.
Recent hits on the pipe are the silvery/bluish ones that haven't oxidized or become covered with range dust.
