Joined a local range

Interesting. I am hoping it is just a written test showing you know and understand the range rules.

A board member brought up the idea that people should be able to shoot X groups to qualify to join our club. I actually laughed until I figured out he was serious. I argued “We all shoot to become better shooters but we have to start somewhere. If we set rules as proposed where would a potential member go to practice? What if they get a bad lot of ammo? What if they don’t know ammo even makes a difference? What if they would never be able to shoot to his standards? No, that type of rule is for elitists. I don’t think that’s what our club stands for.”

That's where I was with it as well. Most important is that members understand safety and the rules of the range.
