Buddy who lives up in Andover NJ just got a pistol and a rifle - figured we might try to hit one of the PA public shooting ranges for his first time out.

 

The PA range website is here:

Anyone know off the top of their head which range would be closest to Andover, NJ? Any tips for going there, aside from get there early?

I went to one off rt 80 its was 110 miles from my house in moonachie. I was in wallanpack or something like that. we got there at like 10 and there was an hour wait.

There's a range in PA up rt.6 just south of Wallenpaupack. Over the Milford bridge, into Milford, and straight up rt.6.

 

I've never shot there, but I did stop by once to check it out.

 

Seemed okay. It was a summer weekend and there were only a few people shooting. Looked pretty casual.

sunset hill shooting range is about 20 minutes over the Delaware Water Gap bridge off 80

nice people

I hear sunset hill is a ripoff though. I know some people that have went there and paid way too much.

Go through Milford PA on route 6. The range is around 20 miles down the road on your right. Theres a small wooden sign that says rifle range. They have 100, 50 and 25 yards. It's busy on the weekends. Keep in mind they only allow 6 rounds in a handgun and only 3 in a rifle then you can reload.
