You're all helpful and humorous.
Our league is 50 yards, rimfire, 5 targets 5 shots each followed by 100 yards, centerfire, 5 targets 5 shots each. They record your best rim and CF of the day. This goes on once a month for 9 months. They average your 4 best days of rimfire and four best days of CF groups for rank. So far I'm under .20" for rimfire (2nd, first shoots like .04" - former Olympic alternate) and my CF scores are so-so. Since I'm not interested in reloading, have too many hobbies, I'll try Black Hills ammo next season. I find Fiocchi 320 SM is great for the 22LR but am less impressed with the Fiocchi VMAX red tip.
I plan to retire in two years.
We also have a BR event with iron sights. That is interesting since it's in December and is at 100 yards. I recall shooting that in a blizzard once. Most of the time it's just cold and the insulated hunting pants, I'm not a hunter, are wonderful.
I'll consider the marker but we have ten fixed benches and there's no guarantee which I'll get though I try for 6 and 8 (wind seems more consistent).
We are probably the largest shooting range on the East Coast. The Associated Gun Clubs of Baltimore
https://associatedgunclubs.org/ is an umbrella organization. There are about 26 clubs. A member may shoot with their club. If they want to shoot at anytime they need a Range Badge. Membership in a club is typically $40-$60 a year depending on the club, most require NRA membership, and the Range Badge is about $200. So for $260 you can shoot every day of the year from just after sunup to just before sundown except for New Years Day, Christmas Day, and half of Thanksgiving Day. I've been a member of Monumental Rifle and Pistol Club for a long time but am switching to Arlington Rifle and Pistol Club mostly because the BR League is moving there. The AGC has many ranges - 1) handgun range to 50 yards for about 50 shooters, 2) rifle range to 100 yards for about 100 shooters, 3) fixed bench range to 100 yards for 10 shooters, 4) high power range to 200 meters (AGC was a WWII training post) for about 10 shooters, 5) voice activated trap four of whatever they are called (mini-ranges), 6) two story archery range, 7) indoor air rifle range for about 6 shooters, 8) load range for one shooter, and 9) action pistol (they want to attract the young). We can bring guests but only one person may shoot on a single point at a time and we must be there. It's a nice place. They even run heat on some of the handgun points during the winter. We have multiple range houses, houses (bought to avoid neighbors complaining of the noise), and sheds/storage/...vehicles...
We also have events such Wounded Warriors and Women on Target. I've run the BR for Wounded Warriors and it's a surreal experience watching guys standing around shooting the s... and one has a metal leg sticking out of his short pants, the other a metal leg sticking out of his short sleeve shirt, ... and some have had more than 100 surgeries. It's hard to describe how these young men are moving on the best they can.
Funny Story - While running the BR for Wounded Warriors I noticed an anomaly which is normal for a mathematician. They guys wearing our clubs red hats were shooting much better than the guys wearing our clubs black hats. They'd all been given a hat. I mentioned this and the guys in the red hats starting laughing. The guys in the black hats explained they got less range time. What nobody told me was they gave Marines red caps and everyone else, mostly Army, black caps
You had to be there but it was very funny.
