Rainbow Valley Range @ Fallbrook, CA

$125 / yr + NRA. Membership is capped but LE and Mil can join anytime. This is a shooter's paradise right @ the border of San Diego and Riverside counties and in the midst of SoCal suburbia. It's amazing that it is still open.

Ranges:

10 yd 22s only
25 yd 33 rifles only
100 yd rifle
150 yd rifle
Skeet (or is it trap?) range
Anything goes range
2 handgun only steel ranges (one with falling targets)
1 50 yd handgun only range.
1 instruction range
 
$8 a day, all day. Must use range ammo, and a box of 9mm is $13.95. I usually shoot two boxes of 9mm, and the total runs around $35.00.

Membership is $300 per year, or $150 per year if you sign up after ThanKsgiving, and good until the next Thanksgiving. This gets you free range time, and $2,00 off per box of ammo.

Indoor range, 19 lanes, 20 yards.

Dominion Shooting Range in Richmond, VA.

I'm just waiting for Turkey Day...:)
 
In northwest Washington:

http://www.custersportsmensclub.com

Family Memberships ~ $120/year. $2 range fee any time you shoot. $6 range fee for non-member guests. NRA sanctioned but NRA membership is not required.

Tacticle competitions, IPSC, Fallling Plates, Bowling Pin, Varmint, Cowboy, Rimfire/Centerfire Bullseye Indoor, Rimfire rifle Indoor, Outdoor Bullseye and Duello, and other competitions every weekend. Also ongoing leagues competing with a local public owned range. There's always something going on. Three 25/50yd outdoor pistol ranges. Big pistols use the short out door rifle ranges of 50yds, 75yds, 100 yds, and 200 meter. 200 meter has pop-up targets. We share the rifle range with the Bow club for competitions once or twice a year. There's a rimfire youth shooting program. And we have a few AR's just for youth shooting.

Open 9am to dusk/9pm. Serve yourself card locked gates. Bring your own ammo. No rapid fire rule unless the shooting competition requires it. (dumping five bowling pins in less than 3.8 seconds sometimes requires some pretty fast shooting.)

We're pretty spoiled out west.

Yes I'm a member, at a cost of $18 per year.

Range fees are about $8 per half hour.

They let you fire your own ammo, which is a big plus.
 
Range

$8.50 / unlimited time as a non-member.

I'm joining a club that has an unlimited use (dawn to dusk) outdoor range for $170.00 for the first year and $120 (I think) thereafter.
 
I have memberships at two private outdoor clubs in the metro. Both require work or you pay extra on top of a yearly fee. The commerical indoor range I frequent is 35 for a membership and then 9 bucks for unlimited shooting. It is the cleanest and best ventilated range in the metro, although only goes to 50ft.
 
CCFSA, Ohio's best kept secret

My club in Wilmington Ohio is one of the best kept secrets. situated within an hour of Dayton, Columbus and Cincinnati we are only $40 a year, though it is going up to $50 in January. No range fees. I am a past President and am still on the board of directors, as well as director of legislative affairs. Anyone interested in joining is welcome to email me I will be willing to sign sponsorships to help get THR members in. [email protected]. :cool:
Check it out here. Tim

Yes, I'm a member. Family membership is $72.00 a year and we have 200yd rifle, ten point indoor pistol to 25 yards any non magnum pistol or 38spl in 357 mags etc, we have seven outdoor pistol ranges with up to 50 yard berms, we have a PITA trap range, sporting clays and skeet. For members it's $2.00 per person for all day. Non members are $10.00 a day. The club has meeting facilities, a 100 acre park for picnics and camping, as well as a full restaurant. The property abuts a nationally ranked salmon fishing river and we have duck and goose hunting in the fall and winter as well.
 
No member fee, $2.00 per CARLOAD. We take the kids all the time. Gardnerville,NV. 50 yd pistol, 100 yd, 200 yd, 300 yd rifle. Covered with benches. Put your money in an envelope and press the button to open the gate.
 
In PA the average Indoor range is $12 to $15. The place I go is $12 with a one hour time limit, which is usually not enforced unless they are crowded. Some PA state game lands have small 25/50/100 yard ranges that are free.

I want to join Delaware County Field & Stream which has a huge facility less than 5 miles from my home and cost $150 for a years membership (unlimited use of all ranges). Problem is I need referrals from 2 members and I'm still new to the area. Shameless plea...any high roaders who are also member of DCFS, and are willing to OK me, please let me know. If I join, I'll probably finally get around to getting my hunting license:eek: . My friends BEG me every year.
 
In Mass we have Sportsmans clubs. They are private orginzations that have full facilities, such as club house/s, clay sport fields, rifle ranges and indoor/outdoor pistol ranges, and the larger clubs own 100s of acres for hunting/conservation. To join one has to go through background checks, and formal interviews to weed out the undesirables. Membership is exclusive, so it can take a long time to be accept if you don't know someone who is a member. To pay for all their ammenties the annual fees are expensive. I know most of the clubs within a 30 mile radius from here are charging over $100+other useage fees. I know of others clubs in the eastern part of the state outside of Boston are $500+ a year. I don't belong to a club do to the high prices so I don't shoot very often except on some land my family owns.
 
The closest, so most convenient, range to me charges $10 per hour per person. That is normally enough time for me to get through the drills that I practice and I don't find the price too abhorrent.
 
Tyler, TX

Here isn Tyler TX we have two options:

1) Indoor range: $20 for the day, no memberships available. No hourly rates. Up to 25 yards.

2) Outdoor range: $125 year. Only members can use it, but there is a period from October 15-Nov. 1, when they allow deer hunters to shoot in their rifles for $10 per gun. Anywhere from 5 yards to 150 yards is OK.

Where are you??????

Gotta love these people that post "it costs XX amount of $ around here" but don't give a location. That's useless info. At least narrow it down to a country or a state or maybe even a part of a state. :confused:
I live in Frisco, Tx just north of Dallas, and the good, local, outdoor ranges have either been shut down by the anti's or bought out by developers. This is a "family friendly" town which translates to " P. C. Dominated" town. The only local range is a indoor range that charges $18.50 per lane to shoot shoulder to shoulder with a little partition dividing shooters and casings bouncing off your head. Just good for punching holes in paper! My range bag is full of 45 casings even though I'm not shooting a 45 (yet) when I get home. :what:
We will be moving to East Texas soon where there are some good ranges at a reasonable prices. I'll probably buy a yearly membership there.:p
 
Hey Bonedigger....

I was pecking my latest rant when you posted. We will be moving close to Tyler, Longview or Gilmer. Which range to you shoot at out there? From what I've heard the ranges are pretty good in that area. Gotta be better than here or is that just the "green grass theory" making me think so?
 
Northern KY ranges

I have 2 indoor ranges within 10 miles of the house. Both charge between 11-14 bucks per hour for a lane after purchasing a yearly 'range card' for 5 or 10 bucks. Lanes can be shared, and you can bring your own ammo. One is pistol caliber only, the other allows shooting rifle calibers up to 30-06 (which gets mighty loud indoors). Both run about 200 a year for a membership I believe - I'm not a yearly member yet at either location.

There is a WMA about 20 miles south of me that offers Trap/Skeet and outdoor Rifle/Pistol that I have been wanting to try but have not had the time. Not sure what the costs are to shoot there but I'd like to find out.
 
range prices

Here in the southern metro of Mpls. they charge $375 per year unlimited range time, can bring one friend per visit. A dozen indoor lanes available(25 yds.). Open 10 am till 8pm. Ammo and targets avail. No draw from holster, or rapid fire.
 
my club rules. since normally I'm the only one there I can draw from a holster, shoot steel, rapid fire, or whatever.
