Hi Brandon,

I'm never quite sure where Sandy Springs is.  There's an enclosed range called 
Bullseye in Cumming.  You could call them and ask questions.  There's also an 
enclosed range in Alpharetta around the area of Rick Case Hyundai and Carmax on 
highway 9.  I don't know the name.  There's a gun club I believe with an open 
air range in western Forsyth Co. off of 369.  I don't recall their name either, 
but, last time I checked, the dues were about $ 200 / year.  You could probably 
find these places with some detective work.  Other possible sources for 
information are the firearms departments of Adventure Outdoors in Cobb Co. or 
Bass Pro Shop at Discover Mills.  I think the name of that shopping center may 
have changed.  Having said all that, I own a rifle but rarely shoot it.

Sincerely,

Ron

Please excuse my potential brevity if I'm typing on the touch screen.

(PS - If you email me and don't get a quick response, you might want to
call on the phone.  I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy
mailing lists and such.  I don't always see new email messages very quickly.)
