    Places in NC to go Shoot

    I figured this might be a good way to start things off.

    Where are some of the places in NC that are good to go shooting.
    In no way do I make any money from anyone related to the firearms industry.

    Really great to have a NC-specific training forum; thanks The_Katar!

    I am really looking for a good outdoor range with 100+ meter capabilities AND that is NFA (specifically machinegun) friendly within 30-40 minutes of the Raleigh/Durham area.

    Anyone know of a place that fits this bill?

    Uwharrie Nation Forest has a range, is in Troy NC. Not sure how far you are from there.

    Josh- Check out the Uwharrie Nat'l forest. Might want to call about NFA items but I seem to remember they're ok.

    You would be around an hour away; give or take 30 min depending where you are in the Triangle.

    Make sure you PM me and bring some of your flamethrowers!

    I live over in western NC - Mitchell county. We don't have many places to shoot, a rifle range is being contructed in Avery county, advertising a 600 yard rifle range, 50 yard pistol range, and archery area. Supposed to be open in spring, I'll post the specifics when it's available.
    Otherwise, I shoot in a privately owned livestock field, about appx. 700 yards max distance (ridge to ridge, only about 200 yds of flat area), and can go shoot with some people when I'm not working, need about a week or two notice in advance, pm me.
    Other than that, I'm stuck asking landowners permission to hunt/shoot on their land - a long distance range is badly needed around here!

    Eastern NC Firing Range in Dudley NC (technically, it's Goldsboro).

    Not that far away from Fayetteville, little over an hour give or take the traffic on 13.

    Ken was a good guy and open to "new" guys the couple times I've been out there.

    Josh, you may want to hit him up too. He's got a pistol, 100 and a 275 rifle (altho that's on a separate piece of land). We talked last year about some SBR stuff and he didn't seem to be a Nazi when it comes to NFA items, altho MG stuff I'm not too sure of. (And it's probably give or take an hour for you to head down 70)

    If near Salisbury, the Rowan County Wildlife Club is a great place.

    rcwanc.com I think.
