How much does it cost you for a year at your range

[SSN Vet]

$65 annual dues.... and I'm supposed to turn out once or twice for a work day. Self monitoring on the range (RO is the first person there), and a pretty low key membership. No surprise, they closed the club to new members last year, as there has been a flood of new people coming in since Obama won the gun sales rep. of the century award.

There's another club a couple towns over that is well over $100, requires you to take NRA classes, and you can't use the indoor range unless you've been a member for 5 years.

Their a very active club with lots of classes and meets however.

The only real range around here is a private range on a large plot of land owned by a local guy. Covered 50-400yd rifle range and separate 10-100yd covered pistol range.
It is semi open to the public, with a gate that opens with a "key" consisting of a large hex head bolt. Anyone who has a key is allowed in, whether the owner knows them or not. No real membership. The gate is more to keep his cows in than to keep anybody out.

The owner keeps it open with the understanding is that if the place gets trashed, people start bringing inappropriate items to shoot, or someone shoots one of his cows he keeps on the other side of the property, that the lock gets changed.
It is totally an honor system and seems to work well.
The owner is a big 2a fan and just wants good people to have a safe place to shoot as long as they are respectful.
No fees.

 

[GRIZ22]

$300 a year gets me a 200 and 300 yd rifle range, outdoor bullseye pistol range, 5 trap or skeet stations, 15 outdoor pits, archery range, and a indoor 24/7/365 pistol range.

 

[49willys]

Ours is $25./year for a 10 concrete bench,covered 500+ yrd range.No tracer or magnetic bullets because of the fire danger we have here in the dry months.

 

[txblackout]

Ok guys I trying to decide of I should join a range it's pistols only as far as I can tell which I shoot the most of anyways so I'm just curious what y'all pay as a membership at your range this one is iirc $150 for a year or $25 dollars an hour

Indoor range 450, cut the line privileges, free gun rentals. Or $15/45 minutes

One outdoor range is $20 one time 15/visit for unlimited time. up to 300 yards.

The other is $6/visit for unlimited but further away. They have 1000 yards rifle and tactical bays with be berms on 3 side s that you can run around in.

I guess ours are very expensive

 

[ku4hx]

Up to $300 / year for a family full membership that includes unlimited no fee pistol and rifle range usage, after hours range and clubhouse usage, severely reduced event entry fees, reduced cost at the skeet, trap, five stand and sporting clays ranges. Value depends on what you want, how often you want it and what club features you use.

My yearly dues essentially provide "free" pistol and rifle shooting starting at about early to mid March given how often we shoot and what we shoot mostly.

 

[jcwit]

I'm a member of 3 ranges/clubs. All 3 I am grandfathered into so the cost is "0". However 1 I also am on the BOD, and Officers and Board members do not pay dues. Another that I am grandfathered into I pay extra dues but it's earmarked for the jr. programs.

What would they cost if I had to pay dues?
1. would be $125.00 a year, it's an indoor range.
2. would be $40.00 a year, it's an outdoor range, 100 yds.
3. would be $100.00 a year, and it's also an outdoor range, 150 yds., at present.

 

[MutinousDoug]

The recreational club nearby (15 miles) is $125/yr but that's with my over 65 discount. Offers trap, pistol berms to 50 yards, a combined range from 25 to 100 yds, a silhouette range to 80 meters and a covered 200 yd rifle range. All outdoors.
Then, there's a more competitive range about 40 miles out that costs me $65/yr with my senior discount and I don't have to participate in work bonds unless I want to. It has covered pistol, rimfire and rifle ranges from 25 yds to 200 and a High Power range with scoring pits from 200 to 1000 yds.

 

[Pete D.]

I am a member at three ranges. In addition, I have a home two miles away from a PAF&G range in Pennsylvania.
The Trap range is $250 a year. The indoor range - five blocks from my home in NYC - is $250 a year. In PA, the club is 20 miles from my home - a beautiful and complete facility - that is $40 a year.

 

[Outlaw75]

I have to pay by the session, but I can shoot all day long for $7.

And it's a heck of a nice facility, too!

 

[Tom609]

I volunteer as a RSO at a range open to the public on weekends and get free membership and use of the range during the week and non-public hours. It would cost $75 / year. I also belong to a private club with gated entry, open 8 am to sunset, 365. That costs $135.

 

[easy]

Costs me nothing. I just walk out back o my own 100yd range in the woods.

 

[monk d]

$8,400 per year, yes $8,400...it is the mortgage on my property for the next few years.

 

[MARKMALL]

My club charges $110.00 per year. 2trap fields, 60 yd covered pistol range, up to 300 yd rifle range. We can shoot every day from 9:00 am till sunset.

 

[UKWildcats]

SW Ohio -- South of Dayton

Middletown Sportsman Club
-- Trap, about 20
-- Skeet, 2
-- Sporting Clays

Cowboy Action Shooting -- Sorry can not do the threads or the name

Rifle/Pistol range -- 7.5 yards to 200 yards

Cost is about $115 year (there is an initiation fee)

Extras include a fishing lake -- stocked but I never have any luck.

And they sell some reloading supplies -- every once in a while they have stuff I need without the hazmat fee.

Only closed on Monday (and Christmas) -- from 10am to dusk -- Much better than the State of Ohio Range (Way Better).

[herrwalther]

Wow I feel I am getting ripped off in this thread. Local outdoor range charges about $430 for the year. Farther away indoor range is $250 for a year, with MIL discount.

 

[Tinpig]

[primalmu]

Tucson Rifle Club - $60/year family membership
http://www.tucsonrifleclub.org/Facilities.shtml

- 500m High Power Silhouette range
- 100m public sight in range
- 100m black powder range
- 100m .22LR range

I think I get my money's worth.

 

[MrBorland]

$150/yr

300 yard rifle range with 5 covered benches.

7 pistol bays. Each for a single shooter, but the shooter is able to draw, move, engage multiple targets (including steel) and rapid fire. Shotguns, rimfire rifles and pistol-caliber rifles are allowed on the pistol bays, but no centerfire rifles (e.g. ARs, AKs, etc).

Best of all, no club politics, and it's not crowded. It's privately-owned and the owner lives on-site. He alone says what goes or doesn't, and he's got an excellent safety record. He's also an excellent shooter, competitor and (unofficial) 'smith.

On the downside, the rifle range isn't set up for prone shooting past 50 yards, as there's a 50-yard berm ahead of the firing line. And it's paper-only, and no faster than 1 shot per 6 seconds. To shoot prone past 50 yards, I lay on top of the bench with my feet hanging off the back.

 

[bangswitch]

Costs me nothing. I just walk out back o my own 100yd range in the woods.

Wish I could do that; I have a perfect place for up to 250 yards, but I live in a city limits and discharging firearms ist verboten.

I go to a city police range 30 miles from my house right now, they are open to public on Saturdays. $10/30 min for pistol (up to 50 yards) in the mornings, closed an hour for lunch, then $10/hr for rifle (up to 100 yards) in the afternoon. I'm shooting there, and at the public skeet/trap range next door to it, enough that the fees are adding up. I plan to join the county wildlife club down the road this month. They have rifle (300 yard), pistol, skeet, wobble trap and regular trap, and plan to add a sporting clays course. It's $200 initial fee plus first year dues of $200, and then $200/year. Three workdays a year are required or they assess a $25 fee for each one missed when membership comes due. It's a much better deal for as much as I'm shooting, plus I can take unlimited guests.

 

[Warp]

I didn't vote.

The outdoor state run range is $35/year for a group pass (pass holder must be present and group must stay together)

The older indoor range, I don't even know, <$200 a year (25 yards, rifle and pistol, can even shoot green tip 5.56)

The newer indoor range (has a 25 yard range and a 100 yard range) is >$500 (rifles okay but no steel jackets or bimetal jackets which sucks)

I haven't paid for a membership recently other than the state range
