Rifle Ranges in Northern VA?

[Citpitch02]

I have been looking for a place to stretch out my AR and my Remington model 700 in NOVA with no luck. If anybody knows some public ranges in the area I'd love to hear about 'em!

Regards,

T.W.

how much stretching room do you need? have you tried the NRA range off 50 East and Waples Mill Rd? Otherwise, depending on whether you meet the requirements, link up with the Quantico Shooting Club.

What ever happened to the HK range in Stirling?

Try Clark Brothers in Warrenton, VA. It is on Rt 29/211 about 40 minutes from Fairfax. It has 100, 50 and 25 yd. ranges. It is free but you must buy the ammo from them.

Definately check out the Quantico Shooting Club (www.quanticoshootingclub.com).

Range 305 (500yds) there is open most weekends. Range 4 (1000yds) is open about once a month.

Any requirements for Quantico? I'm a FLEO so I wouldn't think I would have any issues. It would also be closest to my location.

Thanks!

You have to buy their targets and ammo. And pray that you don't get muzzle swept by the 'tards. I'm just amazed they haven't had someone killed their yet.

Tried contacting QSC about membership and have yet to recieve a reply. It's been almost two weeks. Anybody have any ideas on why they've failed to respond?
