Went with a friend to Range 14 at Fort Dix yesterday and had a great time. We got there about 10am and there was no wait. Shot for 2 hours with my 11 year old son and my buddy and his 14 and 11 year olds. For anybody who hasn't gone, there's pistol and rifle ranges. We shot at the rifle range. You can set your targets from 15-200 (250?) yards and also set targets (i.e. plastic bottles, cans, etc.) on the ground to shoot at. Membership is $60 and $5 per session to shoot. You can also bring up to 3 guests.

It's funny, I grew up in pemberton right next to fort dix and macguire and I never went to range 14 to shoot nor knew anyone that did. Guess we just knew of places in the woods to shoot. Glad to see you enjoyed your time!

Note that current/former military gets a 50% discount on their membership fee. And I think it's $4 per person per hour.

I have had nothing but good experiences there. To answer your question, the rifle range is 200 yards.

It's a pretty good range. I get tired of the damn loudspeaker repeating the rules over and over and over and over.

Plus, that new roof amplifies the sound a lot!

I went there on Saturday for the first time. Was very enjoyable, the ROs were very nice. Can't wait to go back!!!

That can get annoying, but it's partly because some people don't listen the first time so it has to be repeated over and over.

I'm on the fence about the hot/safe range times.. I can't think of a better way to do it with an outdoor range but it gets frustrating when you can only shoot 30-45 min of the actual hour. Especially when one stand puts targets out at the full 200 yards and the rest of us are waiting for them to walk out/back. I will admit that the range-safe times can be a good opportunity to interact with fellow enthusiasts nearby w/out interrupting their shooting or having to wear ear protection.

I have yet to get out there but am very interested in trying and outdoor range. Will have to setup sometime. Can you walk on for a fee or do you have to be a member?

Members only dude. I'm sure someone will be happy to share a table with you so you can get a feel for the place. I'd volunteer but I might not be down there for a few more weeks

Im going to try to go this weekend myself. Im just hesitant to shoot any ammo I feel like i should hoard it all and hold onto it...

Do they have any shotgun ranges like trap, skeet, or 5 stand?

They have skeet and trap. I don"t know what 5 stand is.

Im not sure what 5 stand is either, I see it in magazines but never in person. It looks like fun.

Thanks for the info. I live 20 min away and have never been there. I think Im gonna check this place out this weekend.

If i go, ill be there sunday morning most likely. Keep an eye out for a guy in a Black Acura TSX, im going to try to find a sitter so my wife can come as well...
