Book excerpt: It's Fun To Shoot "An Easy Approach to Popular Recreation for Both Junior and Senior Organizations" This mid-twentieth century promotional booklet (circa 1940s - 1950) was published to encourage and educate Boy Scout/4H/other youth groups about how to go about setting up a small bore practice range and shooting competitions. Topics covered include how to organize your own shooting club, safe range construction (both indoor and outdoor types), The NRA Ranger Program, as well as basic shooting fundamentals and safety practices. While a bit dated in places (i.e. setting up an indoor ranges without an adequate ventilation system, and no mentions of using proper hearing/eye protection), this would still be a great introduction for groups or novice younger shooters. To anyone who learned to shoot at Boy Scout summer camp it will certainly bring back cherished memories.

The wind flags are made of different sizes, but the larger they are the better. A pennant 6 feet on the hoist and from 25 to 30 feet on the fly seems to give the greatest satisfaction. The point of a pennant will show light winds, and the size of the flag will give a better unit on which to base the force of the wind. 165. In the model rifle range (see frontispiece and chapter II, plate I, page 18-a) wind flags have been placed at every hundred yards at the dividing-line between the different sections of the range. This is a good rule to follow and will insure the range being properly flagged. One great trouble with numbers of fine ranges is that there are not sufficient wind flags to give all men an equal chance of judging the wind. Of course, in the interest of economy it may be necessary to cut down this number slightly. In this case they might be placed at every 200 yards instead of every hundred, but we do not recommend that the flags be placed on lines of fire too widely separated. It is not well to have the flags separated by more than 300 feet. 166. In case the range is located in a section of country where there are peculiar currents coming from different directions, it may be well to place flags some distance from the range so as to give men an opportunity of catching a change of wind before it strikes the range proper. Some ranges are not flagged with any attempt at regularity, but have flags placed where it is thought they will do the most good. This in order to save expense. This is not a wise plan to follow, but where only a few flags are to be used, they should be placed where there are...

Excerpt from book: X-1 12. The line established by the 1000 yard butt on the fifth strip is carried the entire width of the rectangle, the butt construction allowing for ten long range targets with twenty-four feet between centers in each width of 288 feet. This gives a clear space of thirty feet from the extreme end of the targets to the dividing line between the rectangles. This is to allow the wind-flags to fly their full extent without interfering with the flight of the bullets; to prevent balls striking the flag-poles; or the flags themselves interfering with the line of sight. 13. The above arrangement gives sixty targets for long range shooting in one continuous pit. These pits or butts are numbered from right to left I, II, III, IV, V and VI. 14. The first thing is to establish the height of the embankment wall. Taking it for granted that the ground that this ideal range is to be constructed on is level, the height of the main pit for 1000 yards is established with a target bed two feet above the ground. This will make the height of the embankment wall above the level 12 feet. A line is established from the top of this embankment wall to the 700 yard firing point. This gives the height for the different intervening butts. For instance, on the skirmish butt, VI, there is a 900 yard butt, carrying ten targets 100 yards in front of the main pit. This line established allows the carrying of the height of this embankment to 10 'feet. The 800 yard embankment in section IV is carried to a height of 8 feet. Sections III, IV, V and VI have a continuous pit containing 17 mid range targets in each section, with an interval of 14 feet between centers, with 29 feetfrom the extreme end of the end of the targets to the dividing lines of the section. The embankment for this long pit is 4 feet 6 inc...
