*POYNETTE, Wis.* ? The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) today announced upgrades and repairs are complete at the Columbia County Shooting Range. The handgun range, now including a bullet-catcher, is also open to the public.
Improvements to the range [ [link removed] ], located at W6273 King Road, Poynette, began earlier this summer after heavy rains triggered mudslides, damaging the area. The resulting repairs are now complete.
The range now features:
* 100 and 50-yard rifle ranges
* 50-yard shotgun patterning range
* Increased sound mitigation
* Handgun range with bullet-catcher
* Updated shooting benches in the 100 and 50-yard rifle ranges
The DNR thanks all the range users for their patience and understanding during this repair period. The department remains committed to providing a safe, enjoyable range experience. This means the department will continue to monitor, evaluate, and make necessary range modifications and improvements to ensure the public's safety while they recreate at DNR-managed ranges.
