"Ready,aim-fire" in Bristol,PA

Featured Replies

Anyone familiar with it? I have to get back into a range. Hagues is too expensive to bring my family ($400 per year plus $15 per family member each time) and "ready,aim-fire" is $285 but includes 4-additional family members. It is the same distance but handgun only. I live in the Cherry Hill,NJ area and want to shoot the rifle once in a while as well. Any suggestions?

I will start out by saying that I have been to Ready, Aim, Fire in Bristol a few times in the past 2 years. They are a decent range but fairly expensive, I would suggest checking out Delran Junior Marksman Club in Delran off 130 on Taylors lane. They have rifle at 100yd and 50yd, pistol at 7,10,15,25 yard. Trap shooting range, .22 silloette range, Air rifle range, and even an elevated platform that you can train with your bow from. First year membership will run you $110.00, this includes a $50 one time fee. Your wife can get a free membership card, and anyone you take to the range (family or not) under 18 is free as well. The range is open on the weekends from 12-5pm and in the summer months it opens on Wednesday night for trap shooting under the lights.

Ready Aim Fire is a decent range but, as stated above, pricey.

Look into South Jersey Shooting Club or Fort Dix.

Is RAF's range functioning again? They had a fire there last year.

Just a couple of minor corrections/additions to the above. The weekend hours are actually 12:00 till 4:30 PM. Wednesday evening hours for rifle and pistol start on May 2nd and are from 6:00 PM till dusk. Evening trap shooting begins on May 9th. There is also one 5 yard position on the pistol range. The annual membership fee is based on a 8 hour work party requirement. If you decide to forgo the work party requirement, it will cost you another $60.00 per year. A day pass is $20.00.

Yes it is. Shot there the other week. Not a bad alternative if you are close and need a place to shoot a few times.

Thanks for the information but it's about the same price as Haugues and twice as far. Living near Cherry Hill sucks...high taxes and no decent ranges!

If you are looking for an indoor range closer to CH, how about The Firing Line in Philly?

I like the fact that you can shot your shotgun there.

They have a range there? Went onto their site and did not mention a range...I'll email them.

In cherry hill fort dix is probably your best bet. $60 a year and the drive isnt too bad

I am a little shocked by the wishey-washey reviews on RAF. I am not so shy.

Shoot RAF if:

1. Yo wanna shoot widt gangstas

2. Bullet holes in the walls behind the fireing line do not concern you

3. You don't mind the guy next to you putting more rounds in your target than his

 

They have zero range discipline. It is a free-for-all.

Last time I was there, about 2 years ago, I got hit in the leg by a ricochet. I will never go back.

That ranks as a "Holy Crap". I can in no way blame you for not wanting to return.

That's a WTF!!! For sure!!!

 

Sorry, I got side tracked....USANA is a cheaper place to shoot. We're weeding out some riff-raff that got in under previous mgmt. right now but it's getting better. I hear good things about SJSC.

for that poster from cherry hill,

 

"The Firing Line in Philly"

older place, primitive lane mechanisms, but very cheap. they can't afford business cards.

215-336-1710, 1532 front st, between tasker and dickinson, industrial complex.

 

cheaper than phila archery and gun club (ellsworth st, south philly, 215-551-4544)

That's a WTF!!! For sure!!!

As many times as I've been there, I haven't heard of a problem, seen a problem, experienced a problem. The ammo is a bit expensive, but I bring my own.

I never thought to look at the wall behind me. Well ... at least they spacled the holes.

I've never thought to look at the wall either. Hmm... I'll have to. This is the only range I know about around me. It doesn't bother me, but it's also the only place other than Fort Dix that I've been to. I want to join Fort Dix once I get some long arms but until then this will be ok. Anyone know any ranges by Plainsboro??

Citizens Rifle & Revolver Club

 

That's a private club - not sure what their guesting policy is. As for other public ranges - there is Wicen's - as mentioned in your thread - but also Classic Pistol in Southampton/Trevose, PA and Target World in Chalfont, PA.

I'm a member at Hagues and while its not the greatest place on the planet, I'm not sure where you het the 15 dollars per member? You can bring one guest for free. How often do you shoot with 4 other family members at the same lane?

Are they outdoor ranges?? I'd like to find a good out door range. The only problem I've had with RAF was when this kid brought in a big drum fed shotgun (I think maybe a Saiga) and was shooting it. I was getting showered with ricochet. The kid fired off 2 drums and left.

Citizens (private) has both outdoor and indoor ranges. Wicen's (public) is outdoors. Classic and Target World (both public) are indoors.
