Hey all. Yes i've read the Ranges thread.

Ok. Where do you go to shoot your AR-15? Obviously it's to fast for indoor ranges (which are to small anyway) and the only 100yd outdoor ranges i've seen are private clubs. Well i'm deploying in a few months and don't want to have to fork out $270 for a membership at the PMRPC for a few months. Are there any other options or is that basically it?

Daytona has a great county owned range, ARs are welcome.

Bill Strickland Range


Perhaps you have not been in Volusia County long enough to know the history of the Strickland Range but the land was deeded to the county by Strickland to be used for the purpose of a gun range.  The unfortunate thing is that the deed states “for recreation use” and was not limited to guns. From its inception the News-Journal has tried to have it closed under one B.S. story or another but always using “Public Safety” as the reason. Before the range was built people just went out to the woods and shot hoping no one was down range. When Strickland was opened you went down a dirt road to get there as Williamson was not paved.


In spite of our extremely liberal paper trying to kill the range, it is open 5 days per week.  Tr it.

What about the range in Titusville (or is it almost to Mims?)  just north of you?

Spaceport would have been my suggestion-- but that's gone for now.

Class 3 is limited to LEO under training and rapid fire is frowned on unless in a sanctioned match such as IDPA or IPSC (reason is direct supervision by RO's)

Yeah... you're right... but we have a fish camp 1/2 mile south of us that doesn't appreciate rounds dropping in. Not everyone is aware of their muzzle climb; they're just juiced on the noise and flash.
When I'm the RO, I have been known to make exceptions on a case-by-case basis and have agreed to meet folks with Class III after normal range hours to have a bit of fun, but only if I get to shoot!
