Training Ranges — TC 25-8

This circular provides information about Army ranges. With AR 210-21, Army Ranges and Training Land Program, this circular provides guidance for developing and operating Army ranges. It is a working guide for trainers, range and mobilization planners, engineers, coordinators, and mandated range project review boards at all levels of the Active Army, Army National Guard, and Army Reserve. It is the primary guide for installation and major Army command range development plans and for developing the Army Master Range Plan.
Army Regulation 385-63, Policies and Procedures for Firing Ammunition for Training Target Practice and Combat, provides criteria and instructions for developing surface danger zones for weapons fired on Army and Marine Corps ranges. The US Army Training Support Center is the executive agent for the Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations and Plans, Headquarters Department of the Army, for the Army Range and Training Land Program. As such, the Army Training Support Center is the proponent for this circular.
