YIKES!

My indoor range charges $240 for a yearly membership!

(Shoot as much as I want, though, I can take a lane all day, and there's no ammo restrictions. At all. We had a .guy with a 50bmg one day, glad I missed it!)

Members get a 10% discount on everything except guns, which makes ammo competitive with bulk internet buys in some cases.

It's like $17.50 an hour for nonmembers, gun rental is $8.

My guess is that the dark & fascist state of NJ puts the insurance squeeze on em.
 
Pleasant Grove, Alabama...

just outside Birmingham. www.foprangeinc.com Family membership $200.00 year. Public area is $10 per day M-F, $15 on weekends. Members have 7 other areas for rifle and pistol. The best place to shoot around here!:D
 
Portland, Oregon indoor range. Membership criteria, be breathing, make sure check clears the bank and be a member of the NRA. Dues are $100/year. Indoor 50 foot, 10 lane range. Targets are on a pulley system. Hours are 0800-2000/365 days a year. Entry is by Card Key. No range master. Targets and ears available.
 
Outdoor range similar to yours - $195/yr. Range fee is $150/club membership is $45. Last year it was $95 total. It's an association of gun clubs. The range fee went up by $100 to buy nearby property and keep up with the other clubs.

Local gun store has a 25 yard indoor pistol range. $10/hr. or $150/yr membership. Free 6 month membership with purchases of over $400, 1 year if you go over $1000, I think. All sorts of different targets are available, silhouettes, NRA bullseyes, Bin Ladens, ranging from .25 to a dollah. Anything up to .44 mag is OK, shotguns are OK, no centerfire rifles.

If you want to shoot your rifle around here, English Range on Ft. Benning is the place to go...$50/yr membership, range goes to 500 yards, steel plates at 300 and 360. There's another range down the road from the house that shoots High Power; I plan on heading thataway before too long, High Power competition intrigues me.
 
Mine is $205 per year, un-limited range time. Or $8 per half hour for non mambers. Member guest get a $2 per half hour break on range time. Each family member added to the membership is an additional $20 per year, but they must havethe same address on their DL.

Targets are from $0.50 to $0.95. The ammo is slightly high, but they gotta make a living too. It's a 25 yard indoor range w/ 14 lanes and good ventalation.

They rent Class III. $25 per sub gun + their ammo. Handguns are $5 + their ammo.

Nothing over 2000 FPS allowed, no shot gun slugs only buck shot.

Open 7 days a week 10-9 M-F and 9-6 Sat and Sun
 
"know of any places down along the seward highway that can be used as an unofficial range?"

There's supposedly one just south of Alyeska, but I've never tried to use it. I hunted small game near there a few years back, and could always here gunfire.
 
Range fees - what does your range charge?

My local outdoor range charges $64 for a year, $500 lifetime. Targets are from .25 to $1. Unlimited range time, allows drawing from concealment, rapid fire, it has an area for IPSC scenarios.

Pistol range is 25yds and rifle is limited to 100yds You can use rifles on the area designated to scenarios, but you can't shoot at steel plates for obvious reasons.

On August they will be selling reloads for .38 spl, 9mm, .40SW, .45ACP, .380, .308, .223 and maybe 30.06
 
The one I've been going to recently is free. It's an outdoor range the Department of Natural Resources has close to my house. I'd love to go to an indoor range if there was one in my area.
 
Rick;

The Missouri River Assn range in Great Falls charges $30.00 annual membership. This is a private club range & no daily fee. Your range sounds as though it's much nicer, although shorter. Another range in the same general geographic area is the Stuckenhoff range in Casper WY. This is a city range. Also $30.00 yearly or $2.00 a day if you don't hold a yearly membership. It has a purpose built log clubhouse with indoor archery & airgun range. Also indoor firearms benches that have ports in the wall, for those -30f days ya know. The ports fire onto the 300 yard rifle range. That's got about 15 porched positions & 10 open positions. Conrete amby benches with a swivel stool adjustable for height. A 100 yard pistol range, a self serve trap range, a tower sporting clays facility and last but NOT least. A 600 yard black powder cannon range. Man, when a bowling ball mortar lofts a 16lb ball a 1000 feet in the air, you feel a THWOP under your diaphram you can't believe, and that's from 80 yards away!

Would that be Select Fire? Sounds just like it, except it seems that your membership is a little higher than i remember it being. That is the range I belong to but honestly cant rememer how much it was. I think about $160 for a family membership per year.

No it's Continental Arms in Cockeysville.
 
How much is charged for skeet and trap where you guys go?

The place I go has about 8 stations of different types and its 20 cents a bird.

Since I miss a lot It ends up costing me about $40 to do country doubles or crazy quail for 2 hours.

I just went this morning to a local range (Jay Henges Range west of St. Louis) operated by the Missouri Conservation Department. $3 per booth per hour in the rifle/pistol range (15-100 yds), and $3 per 25 targets at the trap range. Good entertainment for my money!

There are some caveats, though. No rapid fire on the rifle/pistol line (specifically banned along with fully-automatics, armor-piercing bullets, tracers and incindiary bullets). On the trap line, only one round can be in your shotgun at a time, which I thought was a bummer as I hoped to practice some follow-up shots with my 870. I don't think there is a skeet range or sporting clays course at this particular range.

St. Louis area - Bush Wildlife area and Jay Henges

Both charge $3/hour per booth. Targets are free, as are ear plugs (pretty good ones) and eye protection (eye protection to be returned).

Rifle and pistol: 15 through 100 yards, well run and closely watched for safety. The only thing I don't like is that they do not allow prone or kneeling positions - just sitting (bench) or standing are allowed.

Caveat: The Jay Henges booths are more enclosed, and the sound and pressure are amplified. I noticed this afternoon that some of the youngsters (and there always seem to be several families shooting there - which is fantastic!) appeared to be surprised and/or bothered by the noise level even though they were wearing hearing protection.

The roads to the Jay Henges range are all paved and the parking lot is pristine, as is the range; but both ranges are fun.
