Haven't been out there in a long time, but heard that Ellis was in poor health. May not be open now.

It is still open, 40.00 per year. Pistol and rifle range. The range is older but a great deal at 40 a year .

Yep, that's just where I found it. I called (phone number is on their sign), then visited Mr. Hughes today. The range is very basic, a rifle range out to 200 yards (no pits, only berms), and a couple pistol ranges out to about 20 yards. I joined them, but know this range isn't "for everyone". Did I mention that its basic? I plan to build a few target holders myself. They don't actively advertise the range, but prefer folks who are interested to contact them for a visit.

I've been out there a few times this year, to pay my dues for the year. Every time I've not been able to find anyone at home, or who would answer my knock at the front door. .... well, except for the dogs. We get along well! :biggrin:

any recent visits or contact w/ Mr. Hughes or this range????
Has anyone here been to this range in the past few months? I haven't been (spent some massive hours preparing for a prof. exam for 6 months) shooting in some while, and now haven't successfully contacted the owner. If I can't, I'll re-join the MVSA club/range.
