    Default Place to Shoot Long Range Near Pittsburgh

    I am looking for a range that I can shoot more than 400 yards at, preferably even 600 yards, near Pittsburgh. I would prefer if the range was within 30 minutes of Pitsburgh, but a little longer could be okay.

    Thank you,

    John

    There is a gun club on Rt 22 between Johnstown and Ebensburg with a 600+ yard range. I don't recall the name, but here it is on google maps: 40.434062, -78.916118

    I don't know of any clubs with that range closer to the city.

    That would be the Jackson Township Community Rod and Gun Club

    No information on them, just my curiosity had me do the google maps thing and read the sign.

    Greensburg has a 500 yard rifle range. However, as with most private clubs you'll probably have to join to use the range.

    You could see if McDonald Sportsmen has any openings. They require work days and meeting attendance or you pay a higher premium. At least that's how it used to work.

    I think the max range is about 600 yards.
