If the one round at 50 applies to you ask how it applies to every other form of firearm coming on to the property.I can't see every member at the club loading one round,firing and loading another round over and over. Something doesn't make sense.If everyone isn't treated the same quit the club and move on. I quit going to the club I use to belonged to because every time I went some "new" member was telling me how it was.I'd been going there for 20 plus years. Had a new member(less than a year)who just got his handgun permit and he was appointed as a range officer???? Same crap. Making up rules as he went along and a pile of attitude.

shooting like that doesn't sound enjoyable. move on.
Depend on the speed i guess.. i dont mind shooting 2000 rounds and break one.. i'll buy another since they are cheap.
No im not kidding you.. i didn't taught i would have to specify that its the priciest (AROUND WHERE I LIVE). I am not going to include any range from vancouver to ontario since i live in Montreal.. or take a plane to go shoot.. or drive 6 hours to Toronto to shoot either.
Where i live, the other options are half that price. Farnham, Maska, to name a few.

I found this rule stupid also it's not a law it's the clubs policy same as you can double tab or mag dump you need to wait 1 second between shots if not the neibourghs have complained before
C'est le pire club de tir que tu peut pas trouver au Quebec, et pour les autres armes il veut seulement une balle dans la chambre, pas le droit de remplir le chargeur même pour une arme a verrou.
Il m'avait même dit que c'était illégal de chasser avec du 22 lr, la semaine d'apres je lui avait emporté le réglement de chasse pour lui faire voir que c'était faux et il a essayé de me faire croire que j'avais mal compris.
Je comprend pas qu'il garde cet officiel incompetent qui raconte n'importe quoi et qui invente des lois.

If the QC CFO has imposed such a restriction, it may well have the force of law. IIRC, ranges for restricteds must be authorized by the CFO & authorization may have such a condition. Nonetheless, it makes absolutely no sense.
GTF out of there. Ranges like that must be put out of business. Find some crown land that is away from population and shoot NR there (clean up after yourself). Look for proper range for restricted's (if applicable).

I've been a member for a few years now at l'Acadie and it seems like it keeps getting worse year after year. Not only do their prices keep going up, they always seems to come up with new stupid rules. The only reason why i'm still a member there is because it's the closest (by far) range frome where i live, but with the way things are getting there, i feel like this year is going to be my last.
One of the other stupid rule nobody mentioned yet is the one against rapid fire. When shooting, you have to wait a few seconds between each shots. Complete BS if you ask me.
The application of these rules will depend on the range officer in charge. Some of them are actualy OK and won't bother you, but the majority of them are just complete idiots (like the one who told you shooting with your 25 rnds mags was illegal, i'm pretty sure who it was and that guy probably has the same IQ as a sausage)
Anyways, i would suggest to start looking for another range, that's what i'm doing. L'Acadie keeps brigning back the fact that they were the shooting location for the 1976 Olympics and there's a reason for that, they haven't done any good since then.

Sad to hear about dumba## rules. Power trip for the executive for sure. At the outdoor range here the range officer did the video of my Ruger / Tommy gun drum mag dump. His comment was "cool" Find another range. Would be interesting to see range membership costs and distance driven to indulge in our sport. Outdoor range I belong to is $ 50 year and is 15 min from home. No per visit fees, no extras for restricted. Paper targets only, there is a gong in the berm about 220 yards. Very well cared for property.

sounds like they've adopted the New York State mentality towards firearms.....perhaps due to it's longitudinal proximity to NY.....i only joke....man that club would not see a dime of mine.
...That was a joke, a 25 round magazine is MADE to hold 25 rounds...
