I'm pretty happy with it; was referred there by THR members and have referred other THR members there.
They have a few cautious rules (no quick-draws, no tactical competitions) due to the fact that they are very, very close to residential areas. One or two bullets over the backstop could cause seriously bad PR at best, and fatal injury at worst.
Aside from a few slightly picky rules, they're great. Not too far from Austin, reasonable price at $75/yr, ranges out to 200m, numerous competitions held each month, etc.
Easy to join. When I shoot during the week I am usually alone. Occasionally there will be one or two others there. There is typically at least one match per weekend, but you can use the other ranges while the match is in progress, and if you ask the match director (and there's room) you can sometimes shoot on the same range as the match.
I have heard nothing but good things about it.
I went to orientation, but declined to join as they do not allow for drawing and firing.{ I wanted to be able to use their range as a back up for Level III students} and most of my practice is moving and shooting as well as drawing.
The people I met were very nice, and if circumstances were different, I would join in a minute
My wife and I are both members. It's a nice range. There are regular events there such matches, etc. Outside of those I've never seen more than a few shooters at a time.
ARC allows draw-and-fire. It is one of the reasons I DID join the club.
BUT, club rules require Aimed Shots. So, you won't be doing cowboy style draw and shoot from the hip. If you are interested in practicing defensive shooting where you draw and shoot at a target you will not be breaking the rules.
ChickenHawk beat me to it, but he is right. That is the reason I joined as well. Aimed shots and responsible draws are a-ok. You can do rapid fire to your hearts content, as long as it is controlled fire, there is a difference. Plenty of guys out there with shot timers and drwing from rigs while taping themselves. You can practive kneeling, standing, whatever, as long as your bullets hit the berm and you are safe about it. It is a grown up club for responsible adults.
Actually guys,I was told specifically no instinct shooting, no shooting from the hip{where your first shot needs to be from if you expect to survive} and no rapid fire { but was told that multiple shots on multiple targets was ok}
In my second job I have to carry a firearm, and I have a CHL as well{ I also teach Level III security} and if I cant train, then the range is pretty much useless to me.
Hill Country Rifle Range is still there, great place to shoot. Call before driving out though.
