Quoted: Rule #1: One round and one round only. Rule #2: All other ammo must be kept a half mile from your weapon.
Screw Kenmore - if I wasen't such a supporter of gun ranges I would be all for closing that place down and building a shit processing facility there.

I wasn't happy with Rule #1 at first.
I was perplexed, puzzled and pissed about it.
After becoming a Member...I requested that I be able to function test some of my firearms/magazines/accuracy at the SAME TIME so I'd know what worked.
I was required to attend a Membership meeting to make the written request and approval official so the RangeMaster had a record of it.
There IS a provision for this activity IF you are a Member and go through the process.
Additionally, it is ONLY allowed on Range #1, the Members Only section.
Compliance with the rules allows more than one round at a time.
When you've learned what you need to know (and don't bump-fire...) you simply revert to the one-round-at-a-time and hopefully continue to enjoy shooting at a controlled range.
True, it's a pain, but their safety record is impeccable because of the rules.
I've never heard of keeping the ammo far away from the firearms, though.
Must've missed that one!
Fortunately, this place has not been turned into another type of facility.
That WOULD be shitty.
Maybe more of us Washington Shooters could become members and meet there once every month or two as it might be a good thing to support the range through membership and it may be easier to get toghether there vs. out in GF.
At least we'd have a roof over our heads in the winter weather.
( I can't believe I just wrote all this on a Sunday AM directly after waking up...
I gotta go cook breakfast and have Sunday School at the table with our sick kids; Mom's at church being a Sunday School Teacher.
Ironically, the devotional text is about Sunday School Teachers...

edited to add:
bad words and sunday school mentioned in the same post is not oxymoronic - it's all about trying.
