Excellent, another range in Somerset to play at within an hours drive. Fair play for having the bottle to do it, I've always said I'd build a huge range if I won the lottery!

Thorn? I haven't been informed last I heard it was ok for another year.

The new range will be further away, in one of the quarries was suggested, unless its certificated by NRA or an independent range cert it will be as restricted & limited use as Thorn is today.
