Finding a place to shoot in Fort Worth area.

[Carlos88]

Anyone have a decent place to shoot centerline rifles from 100-300yds that doesn't cost an arm and leg to sight in a rifle?

I live in the Fort Worth area and am willing to travel a bit, say 50-60 miles. I've been shooting at Alpine but they now charge $20 and have range officers that think they are Rambo, and no one dare say something they don't agree with, or they'll throw you out of their measly 100yd range. Rant off.

Check wheretoshoot.org. Maybe Parker County Sportsman Club?

Try this place in Terrell. Has targets to 1 mile. From my understanding, you pay $75 for the membership, then you pick a package. They also offer long range shooting classes. https://northeasttexastactical.com/memberships

You can join Arlington Sportsmans Club, it's rarely crowded but the longest range is 200yds. Plus, all the shotgun disciplines, pistol and rimfire and they have monthly matches for just about everything. Depending on how often you want to go, it becomes a bargain.

Thank you. I need to start making some phone calls.

Carlos wished you lived close to us. We have 100 in our back yard and then several PRS Lanes that range out to about 1K.
Hope that you, your family and the animals are doing fine!!

That would be so much fun. So many rifles that need to stretch their legs.

It is. I am wanting to take the course again. Dont want to hijack this thread, so here is the link to my experience there.

Joined the 1 mile club yesterday!

My wife bought me a Long range course for my birthday in March and yesterday was the class with Adam at North East Texas Tactical in Terrell, TX. I really never shot passed 500yds before, so I was pretty excited. I was also nervous because I did not know how my rifle, reloads and myself would...

Hijack away! One mile club! Excellent. I wouldn't be doing anything like that because 99% of my rifles lightweight hunting rigs with 3x9s, 1 4x12, etc.

That reminds me that I need to pull out my 7mm SAUM (Remington 22" barrel) and give it a whirl. Karl Feldcamp fluted the barrel, recut the chamber, vapor blasted the metal. I added a Brown Precision Pounder stock and bedded like I do on all my rigs. It's basically a M7 280AI that weighs about 6.5lbs. It's a favorite.
