Is there a good public gun range in Fairbanks that I can use to check the zero on my rifle when I fly through there in August?

A few.

Plus several hundred thousand miles of BLM lands you can chunk up a target and lay down the lead.

The South Cushman Range in Fairbanks has a berm out to 300 yards. You can find directions online. It's very close to Fairbanks.

No sand bags, just metal benches and metal stools.

Larry:
If you were coming through Anchorage I can collect you and you can shoot at my range as well as shoot a few doubles, too. I'm 100 miles north of Anchorage and 270 miles south of Fairbanks.

Ignore him Larry. He only has trash doubles.

Add a day or two to the trip and you are welcome at our house. Heck, I'll even invite Cal and the young Lad (Brett) to dinner.

Joyce said to tell Mary Lynn to tag along and she can hang at our place until your finished.

Jim

Yes, Larry, listen to a fella who still owns single barreled rifles with the funny looking glass tube for a sight. Jim is allowed in our double shoots for two reasons: his lovely wife and affirmative action laws that require us to invite a percentage of bolt rifle users.

Larry,

If you need some help when you get to town let me know...or...give me a ring before you get here and I can be the tour guide.

Just shoot me a PM sometime this summer as time gets closer. No problem at all.

I might just do that.
