Nearest shooting ranges to Exton, PA?
What are the shooting ranges nearest to Exton?
I'm looking for it to have pistol, rifle (and optionally Shotgun ranges).
Here is the list that I know of.
Did I miss any?
West Caln Sportmen's Club
http://www.wcsportsmen.org/
25 minutes, 12.9 miles
Northern Chester County Sportsmen's Club
http://nccsc.us/
343 Hopewell Road, Elverson, PA. 19520
15.7 mi, 32 mins
The following are fairly far away.
New Holland Rifle and Pistol Club
http://www.nhrpc.org/
18 miles, 36 minutes
Southern Chester County Sportsmen's and Farmers' Association
720 Sportsman Lane
Kennett Square, PA 19348
610-268-3739
21 Miles, 40 minutes
Atglen
http://www.atglensportsmensclub.org/
22 miles, 43 minutes

Lower Providence

2857 Egypt Road, Audubon, PA 19407

There's also Kimberton, but having been there a number of times,
their rifle shooting facilities are limited; and there is a weird feeling
that you had to be there 20 years for them to give a crap ..
type of thing. Hard to put a finger on -- but I know of them.
I know of Target Master too.

"French Creek Outfitters"?
...I guess it depends on what you are looking for in "rifle and shotgun"...Last edited by fat_frog; October 29th, 2012 at 01:34 AM.

I second French Creek Outfitters (can get pretty busy sometimes), or if you have a hunting license, Game lands 43 just next to French Creek State Park on Laurel Road has a pistol and rifle range

Re: Nearest shooting ranges to Exton, PA?
I'm a KFGA member, i know what you mean, There are some goofy rules. However they (we) are spending a ton of $$ to build a nice new 50 yard rifle range.
I've only been a member for 2.5 years i understand they have been traumatized with some frivolous lawsuits over the years. I rencetly learned the club house used to be an indoor range.
Anyway Its convenient for shooting and i very much enjoy shooting JCG there.

Thank you Finch00.
The KFGA (Kimberton Fish And Game) thing that I was trying to explain was that
they were Extremely "clicky"; approaching annoyingly so.
There are the Elite, and the others, who get to pay for new things.
All rather odd, for something like a gun range ;-)
This was just my feeling (but shared by those members at the range,
when I shot there). I chose not to continue paying into that.
I'm glad that it is working out better for you.
Thanks!Last edited by bills; January 24th, 2013 at 11:03 AM. Reason: Link added

Re: Nearest shooting ranges to Exton, PA?
The best shooting range for you around this area would be the French Creek state park range. it's up on RT 23, about 20 min from Exton but definitly worth it..especially you want to do Rifle as well. The people that go there are nice and friendly as well
In my opinion do not go to the Target masters on 202, they are the worst in the area. It cost you more and they let you go in about 40min...besides that they dislike people in general.
