Just wondering here but isn't BLM land range land? I would think if that were the case then the officals in charge are trying to head off trouble with some JERK shooting a cow or some thing by closeing BLM land to shooting except at range sites. Hey if a JERK will shoot up signs and leave a mess then they would shoot a cow or sheep.
Any way that could be the difference between BLM land and a FF.
