Range Fees

Post by Sir Henry » Sat Dec 30, 2017 10:19 am

How much are your range fees? Our 200 yard outdoor range is $100 a year but $25 for those of us 65 years and older. They also ask for $40 if you have not able to put in four hours labor during one of the work parties. I pay the $25 range fee, add $40 for work and donate $35 to the youth program so I pay a total of $100 even though I am older than 65.

The yearly membership dues at my local gun club are $70 a year plus two workdays. That gets me a 50' indoor range and an outdoor range of up to 300 yards. I consider this a bargain. Don't use the indoor range much but make up for it at the outdoor range!

My club's membership is $100 and 1 work day.

That gets one a covered 600yd/500m range, a covered 200m range, Trap, Skeet and International ramges, a Black Powder range, an Air gun / Archery range+ a walking Archery Range.
It's in A National Forest and there are Camp Sites on site with water and covered areas at each range.

When I picked my Raindrop trailer up in WI recently I learned they have a shooting range in the back. I was invited to use it but being winter I needed to get out of Dodge. They also have a mini campground.

The 25 yard indoor range that is closest to me (1/2 hour commute) has an annual membership of $400. It allows me an hour of shooting per visit (open Tues-Sun) and I can bring a guest to shoot in the same lane for an additional $15 per hour.

One of our local indoor ranges had a lawsuit filed against them from employees because of the high lead count in the air. I really DO NOT like shooting indoors.

I hope they managed to clean the air for those folks. At this range, the bullets and shrapnel are deflected downward by a thick steel back wall, then captured in water and the ventilation system is outstanding, all of which is likely part of the reason for the high cost. State regulations here are very strict.

We have a very nice facility in Central Oregon called Central Oregon Shooting Sports Assn. and is a great facility. Actually it more of a complex as it has multiple ranges with most dedicated to their own sport/discipline. It's established on the high desert of Central Oregon surrounded by foothills and has up to a 1000 yard range. Heck you can camp out there and may do for weekend gatherings. It is only $85 a year but unfortunately it's nearly a 45 minute drive for me so most of my shooting is at the 'free' range of the Deschutes National Forest right out my door!

folks who live in Missouri near one of their state's shooting state parks are fortunate indeed .... we make it a point to schedule a couple of days each summer near Jay Henges Shooting Range & Outdoor Education Center ===> https://nature.mdc.mo.gov/discover-natu ... ion-center <=== it is located just west of St Louis .... they charge $3 to shoot for an hour at their indoor hundred yard range and they provide the targets .. :D .. they also have trap ranges where you can shoot a round of 25 skeet for $3 .... 8-)
