What do you pay to belong to your local shooting range?

[imashooter2]

$125 for an outdoor facility in the very crowded suburbs of Philadelphia. 54.7 acres with black powder, high power rifle, small bore rifle and pistol ranges., 3 skeet fields, 3 trap fields, a table trap field, an archery range, a walk through archery field course, air rifle, air pistol and walk through air rifle/pistol course. Really a pretty sweet facility for the area. Down side is very strict target and capacity rules. No holster work, no place to practice shoot and move, etc.

$12 for an outdoor facility in the foothills of the Pocono Mountains. Can do all the stuff I can't do at home. Pits for holster and shoot and move work. No magazine restrictions, etc.. Downside is it is 1.5 hours up a toll road.

HI,
Here they want $115 to join, & $50 every year after that. 2 skeet/shotgun ranges,
1 50 yd pistol range,
Rifle range to 1000 yds. that is were i would shoot pistol if there was room.

I personally think a free american should be able to shoot, outside of city limits, for free. OH WELL!

[Hickory]

I have my own range on my property with back stops at 50- 100 and 200 yrds.
With a concrete bench. I quess in a pinch i could stretch it out to 500 yds.
I feel your pain

[Muddy Creek Sam]

$25 per year, covered shooting bench for two at a time shooting on the rifle range. Rifle range has 25, 50,100, 200, 300 Yard. You have to "qualify" your ability to be allowed to shoot at the 200, 300 yard backstops. Soon to be covered pistol range 7, 10, 15 yard. Fully stocked fridge with about $50 worth of quarters in the door, not a cent ever comes up missing. Lay down a tarp and pickup your own brass or dont come back. There is hardly ever any brass on the ground I might add. 2 miles from home. You dont even want to try to go there the week before muzzle loader or shotgun season comes in, or you will stand there all day waiting to shoot.

[badgeredd]

I am fortunate enough to be able to shoot on my own property. BUT there is a consevation club not far from here that is now $85 a year; belonged to that one but didn't care for the cliche that ran it. I understand there are a couple more clubs to the west of me but have no idea what their fees are. I guess I'm not a club kinda guy.

One problem with the club I did belong to was they had their ideas as to what kind of firearms were ok and which ones were not ok. I really can't abide that thinking considering our gun rights are in constant jeopardy.

[hiram]

$200 initially to join and thereafter $100 a year as long as your membership is current. Each member get a key to the gate. Right now targets are available from 1-2&300 yds. Pistol is 20-25 and 50 yds. Don't know about the shotgun setup. Plans are afoot to build a 1000yd range for hi power, black powder cartridge rifle and the guys who shoot the 50bmg in anything other than a machine gun. Been a member since 1996 and best place to shoot that I have been. Frank

$110 to join pro-rated on month you join. Fiscal year is July-June. $50 a year thereafter. If you join in Dec, you pay $30+$60 initiation, etc.. Members get a break on range fees and $5 off the $25 match fees for USPSA/IDPA/ICORE. We also pay less on the skeet/trap range, 25/100 yard line, etc compared to a non-member. Our action range is blessed with about 50-60 volunteer Range officers. We hold USPSA practice every sat 9:30-1:30 rain or shine except large matches where the range is closed to the public. We work on a 9 week rotation for opening that range for practice and the action range has a match of some kind about 48 sundays out of the 52 in a year (24 USPSA, 6 IDPA, 4 ICORE, 6 Cowboy, and other specialty matches as we can get help for). Match directors ask for help from the range officer pool and anyone who wants to help out.. and we reward them with discounted or free matches.

[41 mag fan]

$30.00/yr. That's what it costs me in gas for mowing my back yard. I'm fortunate enough I can step onto my back deck and be on my shooting range. Of course the set back is I'm limited to 65yrds. So I have to go to the public range 20mi. away for longer distances.

[MT Gianni]

Wilco, What calibers are allowed to shoot fish with?

[jerrold]

Surprised I didn't see a reply from a member of the Rockingham County Gun Club in North Carolina. It has numerous shotgun and pistol ranges, all out doors. About a thousand members. The rifle range is 200 yds. 20 covered concrete benches and a covered loading area. Dues are $100. a year after a initiation fee (??) Dues $50. a year for seniors, that's me. At my cabin in the mountains of VA I have a 100 yd. range with covered concrete bench and shed behind the shooting bench. That is where I do most of my shooting.
