You looking for free use, or pay-per-visit?
I'm nowhere close geographically, but guessing the former is going to be pretty limited. All the clubs I've belonged to have INCREASED the requirement to be a member to use facilities (i.e. no flexibility for non-members whatsoever anymore, outside of an occasional open house type event). I suspect that's driven mostly by legal liability/insurance.
And personally, I find the marginal cost most places charge to be well worth the investment.
Not worried about cost specifically. But, most of the ranges I found were clubs that required membership, attendance to meetings, etc that I would likely be unable to meet due to my work schedule. I would prefer to find a range that I can go, pay or otherwise, shoot and go home.
Huh, that's odd...around here you usually just need someone to vouch for you (an existing club member, or worst case an officer if you dont know anyone else), then pay the fees, maybe do background check, and meeting attendance is usually optional after that. I never attend though...married, working, parent...no time for that.
I got lucky in that a fellow POOFER vouched for me at my latest club, but can usually find an officer if not.

Check out the Washington county Gamelands as well. I don't know if any of them have a range but it's worth looking into. The is a range at the Gamelands in Kirby, Greene County
