Ranges around Apollo/Vandergrift?

[Guns N'at]

Any public ranges aside from PA game commission that you like around these parts, and could recommend? Looking for nothing fancy, just a decent 1-200 yard rifle with benches, and a dedicated pistol range. How about some ranges that require membership that you might recommend, and I potentially could join?

I see "Gilpin Rifles Inc." during a Google maps search; any members here of this range that can help me get on board?

Thank you for the help.

There are a couple of sportmen's clubs/associations in your are but I don't know any of them.

About a half an hour away is PMSC.

Thanks Koli for the suggestion, appreciate it. After I posted, google lead me to shootingplaces.com, and it has been helpful. Here is a map for my neck of the woods:

Cool map.

I'm surprised that PMSC is not on there as it is probably closer to you than about half of the ones that are.

I know some of those sportsmen's clubs have pond/lakes for fishing. Probably the only thing that PMSC does not.

Still suggest you check it out.

Good Luck to you.

There's the Vandergrift Sportsmans Association. it's right up the road from the State Police barracks. $45 for the first year and current dues are $35 after that.

Then you have crowesfoot over in Murrysville. Alot more expensive. $195 for the first year and current dues are $120 after that.

I'll probably be joining the VSA within the next month or two myself.

Thanks everyone. Gonna give Vandergrift a shot, and hopefully soon will join the ranks.
