exoto 2 Posted September 9, 2018 hi guys, I am trying to get into precision shooting. I wonder if there is any 600 yard or beyond distance range for public use in NJ or PA (but better be close to mid-NJ). I currently only go to Range 14 and use their 200-yard range, which becomes less challenging as my skill grows. also, my job keeps me very busy so I can only spend a weekend day at range, which is why I don't want to join a shooting club. I simply can't always do my duties as a member. anyway...the goal is to find ranges like Range 14 (no member duties) but with longer distance rifle ranges. Thanks!

njJoniGuy 2,129 Posted September 9, 2018 There are three 600+yd ranges within reasonable travel distance of most of NJ There is Cumberland Riflemen in Millville (Cumberland County) NJ where I am a member and also part of the HighPower committee that runs the NRA matches. There's one more weekend left this season at Cumberland. Check out the match info at http://www.CumberlandMatches.com and the club site at http://www.CumberlandRiflemen.com In Gap PA (Lancaster County, I believe) is New Holland Rifle and Pistol Club. They also host a variety of NRA High Power matches. http://www.nhrpc.org Lastly, there is Bridgeville Rifle and Pistol Club in Bridgeville (slower Delaware, south of Dover) which has a 1000yd range and hosts both 600 and 1000yd matches http://bville-rifle-pistol.org Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
capt14k 2,051 Posted September 9, 2018 New Holland has a real nice range. Friend of mine is a member there. Never been to the other 2.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex V 99 Posted September 10, 2018 Mifflin Co Sportspman in Lewistown PA is 1,000 yards. I was shooting there two weeks ago but it does require a membership. Only $80/year though. Range 14 is $60 so it's not that much more money. There are no work requirements. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TarlanT 3 Posted February 26, 2023 Looks like this is most recent thread. Wanted to ask the same question, but for Bergen county. Has anything changed in the last 5 years? Is Forbes range in Colonie NY is still the closest option? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sheepdog Warrior is a bit closer for you - https://sheepdogwarrior.com/ Sheepdog Warrior 104 Haines Rd Catskill, NY 12414 They have steel targets of various sizes hanging from 100 - 1000 yards. They close for the winter, so they typically reopen in April. Owner is former LEO and a really nice guy. You have to call ahead to make a reservation to shoot, but we always have a great time when we're there. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
father-of-three 235 Posted March 10, 2023 I know it's not 600, but there are some 300 yard spots at a few state gameland ranges in Pennsylvania, that will cost you around $31 for a yearly range permit. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I almost lost hope of finding anything closer than 2.5 hours and not too hard to get into. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
