How far do you travel to shoot?

Our local range burned down last year so I have to travel about 15 miles to the pistol range. My brother has a rifle range set up on his farm about 50 miles from here. There's also a public rifle range about 35 miles from here.
There's a public land fill (dump) about 10 miles away that let's a few of us shoot rats on the weekends.

Never measured but I'll guess it's about 10 miles. Takes me maybe 15 minutes if there's traffic.

Ten miles away there is a public range with pistol and 25, 100 and 300 yard rifle but it is on a military post and is frequently closed.

Normally I go to a private range with 15 yard pistol, 25 yd, 50 yd and 100 yd rifle ranges. Great place but it is 30 miles away.

I live in northern Nevada. I've shot my full auto (registered) less than a mile from home.

The gun club is about 10 miles from here.

travel to range

Little more than a mile

10 miles to the shotgun/skeet/trap range (not allowed on the pistol range unless you have a 1 year paid membership). Otherwise its 56 miles to the indoor pistol range - open to the public on a per hour basis. :banghead:

Depends

Howdy Michigan,
In soCal it depends on what kind of range I like to shoot that day. If I want to go to the open county range where you can shoot non-traditional targets (i.e. discarded washing machines, refrigerators, etc.) we head out past Simi Valley..that makes it about an hour drive on the freeway, about fifty or so miles).
Then if I want to go to a nearby range for shotgun, there's Pachmayrs, that's about five minutes from my place...or Fish Canyon about 20 minute drive. This place offers shotgun, pistol, and rifle open air ranges.
I think the closest indoor pistol range is San Gabriel Shooting Range which is about a 20 minute drive by freeway from my place.
So, all I have to do is put money in the piggy bank to pay for shooting time and ammo.
How is it in your neck of the woods for some of you other shooters?

About an hour to the nearest free range. :banghead:

There aren't any free ranges around here that I'm aware of, but my neighbor has a membership to the WSA.

It's about 15 minutes away, don't know on the mileage.

The gun club range is about 15 miles, private range I use most is about 12.

6 feet to my porch for skeet shooting, 200 yards to my range with dirt backstop.

About 100 feet for handgun,,,but I have to go about 50 yards to my 200yd rifle range (momma says no loud rifles up by the house). I hate having to walk all that way but other than that one request she's pretty cool so I don't force the issue.

For handguns I go to a range right down the street from work, about half a mile, usually go at lunch or after work. For rifles and shotguns I go to the DNR range at Pontiac Lake which is about 12 miles away.

About 15 feet from my kitchen door. If my wife were a little more accomodating and I had a better ventilation system, I'd open the kitchen window and shoot from the dinner table

The nearest range for me is about 24 miles/40 minutes away.

The rifle range is about 100 feet from the house. But during deer gun season I shot at a deer from the front porch, about 3 feet from the front door.

I have a range on my property about 150 yds from my house

My gun club, Rifle to 200yds, pistol range and skeet, is just on the outskirts of town, about a mile away. Close and $25 a year dues.

25 miles or 58 miles depending

on whether I go to the Bullet express in Springfield, Il. or out to my in-laws farmsted. Springfield is about 45 minutes and the farm is about 1 hour. There is a gun club in my home town but it is membership only and it takes two years and a sponsor to get in.

The range that I am a member of is about 12 miles away.
Pistol range is 7, 25 and 50 yards.
Rifle is 25, 50, 75, 100, 150 and 200 yards.
Also has a cowboy SASS range and sponsors SASS shoots.
Also has a walking bow range.
Skeet and trap are also available.

There are also three other ranges that I do not belong to within 15 miles. Two of them offer indoor ranges, one is indoor only.

Depending upon the range..

From Victor/Farmington NY there's the Victor Rod & Gun Club which is just down the road, or drive South a couple of miles to the Canandaigua range just off of Rt. 332.. or head East on the NYState Thruway a few miles to Geneva and their range. If I head the other way (North & West) toward Rochester there are a couple of ranges from Penfield to Rochester itself.

So depending on what I'm looking to shoot, or which direction to go, I have my choice of several ranges to shoot at.. and all within a short distance.
