Places to shoot near Colo Springs ?

[Winn]

Since when I go to shoot, I shoot full auto, I mostly wind up at Dragonman's unless some friends and I are up to head out into the national forest.

BLGC has nice facilities, but at 90 minutes drive each way, it's just too far.
PPGC doesn't allow full auto.
Frontier only allows auto at the south site, not the closer (to me) falcon site, and has a waiting list anyway.

Which national forest spots do you recommend?

The Ft. Carson/El Paso County range was supposed to be done at the end of October, as was stated before, but it isn't done yet, for whatever reason. To locate it, if you are about to enter gate 20, you would turn left (South) just before getting to the security checkpoint. There is a white and red "bar" gate that will be the entrance to the road. It is about 600-700 meters down the road. The idea is that you won't have to enter Ft. Carson to get to the range and thus, won't have to register your firearms on post. I drove by and checked it out the other day and they had just sprayed the green "topsoil-holder-in-place-stuff" all over it.

Read in the paper the other day that they now plan to open the new shooting range south of gate twenty, Jan 23 , 2013. We will see.

The new Fort Carson range is great news. It is about time shooters in Colorado had a public facility as good, or better, than the City of Phoenix's Ben Avery range.
