Place to shoot near Canton, GA

[HammerG26]

I am looking for a place to shoot near Canton, GA. I am not very familiar with the area. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

My advice? The DNR outdoor range at John's Mountain.
$5 to park, open 9AM to 5PM, Monday through Saturday. Closed Sunday.
100 yard range. Has a roof. Unsupervised. Markers at 10, 25, 50, 75, 100. PVC holes in the ground for target holders. Target holders are provided in the form of fairly straight branches. Bring your own staple gun.

I was there this past Saturday, and had a great time.

Drive ~30 miles up I-75N to Exit 320, GA136.
Turn left.
Drive 7-8 miles to the dead-end and turn right.
~100 yards on the right is a gravel road and a sign for the shooting range.
Follow the signs to the parking lot.

I *really* need to try this range. Keep hearing alot of good things about them. Do they have a website?

I haven't shot at Eds yet but they are friendly and the range looked pretty nice, Pannells is small, and poorly ventilated. The guys in the shop are super nice, but I do not care for their range.

I usually shoot at
Hot Shots Gun Shop & Shooting Range
2445 Austell Road, Ste B
Marietta Georgia 30008
www.hotshotsga.com

Very well lit and ventilated, but not really in Canton.

Its about 15 minutes from my office and its pretty easy to swing by there after work.
