Safety on Range 6: Please note that if you are on Range 6, & need to go downrange (for whatever reason) after closing the range, place the orange "Range Closed" cone in front of the firing point to advise anyone coming to the range. There has in the past been one occasion where a person was observed (in time, & safety) emerging from the bush downrange before shooting was to commence.
