OttoSigNeed Range recommendations in Baltimore/DC area
Mr. Burton and others if you can let me know the best range in the nearby area I would greatly appreciate it.
Nothing too crazy needed. Much prefer outdoor and rarely shoot past 100 yards.
Need to sight in a few rifles and pistol, and would love to be able to introduce the wife to shooting before going back overseas.
I've read reviews online but still can't get a good feeling about which I should visit first.

pedropcolaIf you can live with just pistols and PCC then check out Monocacy Pistol Club in Frederick. It is fantastic and dirt cheap. Good members, I miss them which is one of the few things I miss from my time up there.
Next door to MPC is Cresap Gun Club. Open to public on weekends, rifles and pistols. A bit on the range nazi side so I stopped going but being open to the public it is understandable.
Up in Thurmont there is another range. I can’t think of the name but there are a bunch of them. We have all heard of them. As soon as you say it I will go “that’s it”.

SuppressedI live near you and used to go to On Target near Fort Meade. It became a little run down and I haven't been there in a while. It is not bad during the weekdays but it gets crowded on the weekend. It is just a pistol range and also allows pistol caliber rifles.
I went to Guntry in Owings Mills a few years ago after it opened for business. It is a very nice indoor pistol and rifle range and is well run.
https://www.guntry.com/I also go to an outdoor range that is about a 90 minute drive on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. It is open to the public and is a decent range.
https://www.dscfff.com/The NRA range in Virginia is about a 90 minute drive. It is a well run indoor pistol and rifle range.
https://nrahqrange.nra.org/If you want to shoot sporting clays, this is a nice place on the Eastern Shore:
https://pointatpintail.com/This is a closer shotgun sports facility and is worth a visit:
https://pgparks.com/1283/Princ...ty-Trap-Skeet-CenterAll of these places are open to the public.

VANQUISHI think On Target is closed right now. Info I heard was that Cindy's in Glen Burnie bought On Target and it is in the process of a major renovation.
