I went to the range this week and of course it was a lot of fun but prices for everything are getting outrageous. Here was my bill,
$15 Lane Fee
3-50round boxes of Magtech .40S&W x15.95/box = $47.85
2 Targets at .50each= $1.00
TOTAL- $63.85
I would love to find a place outdoor to shoot that is anywhere within reasonable driving time of Portland but there just does not seem to be a spot. Also I know the ammo prices at my range are high and there use to be a sort of unwritten rule that as long as you ran quality ammo and it was in your guns the RSO didnt care much. I guess they have really gotten cracked down on by the air quality people so they are starting to be more stringent on making sure you use their ammo.
Does this bill seem about average for most indoor ranges?
One thing I noticed that I think might increase my enjoyment is this time I went by myself rather than with somebody else, when I go with a range buddy and we share a lane the 2nd person is only an additional $10 (unless they are a member too then its free) and it makes the whole thing take 2x as long so it seems like a better deal.
