“What is the restriction for noise decibels at shooting ranges and clays courses?”
NSSA and NSCA do not govern the noise levels at shooting ranges. Of course, we do require that shooters, spectators, and employees wear hearing protection while on the range.
Some local governments may impose decibel limits on clubs, so we recommend checking with your local government, if in doubt. Some clubs may also impose noise restrictions, based on their locations, neighboring properties, and member preferences.
