    Default "Tactical" Rifle/Pistol Ranges?

    Are there any in the area that allow, for lack of better term, tactical shooting? Im not talking about jumping on/off things or doing combat rolls etc...I just want to be able to maybe move down range and engage multiple targets at staggered positions.

    I have heard that Heritage Guild, on Hilton St in South Easton has recently put in a 'tactical' range. might be worth checking out.

    Eh after how my brother and I were treated (or not treated) there recently, I prefer to stay away from that place.
    I'm kinda hoping for an outdoor gun club that I can be a member of, vs paying $25 or $30+/Hr for indoor range time.

    Easton fish and game has a tactical bay for your described use. Membership is cheaper than a few trips to an indoor range. I also suggest looking into action pistol competitions either Idpa or uspsa. You will find punching paper trips to the square to be boring after your first match.

    From their website it seems like pistol only? I was hoping for rifle as well, but maybe I'm becoming needy. I thought about doing IDPA/USPA as well as 3 gun, just never made the decision to go thru with it. I should probably attend an event or 2 as a spectator to see what its really like.

    Check out Guthsville --- if you are the only shooter on the range, you can setup targets at varying distances down range and work on movement. We do it all the time when practicing for IDPA/USPSA

    After being out of the Army for almost 6 years, I feel like I'd just embarrass myself at any sanctioned event right now.
