Quoted: My wife transfered down south in January and have been doing the dual residence thing.Its been rough without the kids and the old lady around and traveling every two weeks to see them.My transfer went through on friday and I am relocating to Lake Worth Fla. Any decent ranges in the area(100 + yds?)? Also, any advice on local gunshops would be appreciated.Also, I'll be needing some new shooting buds so please feel free to sound off.Thanks Goodbye Nazi Jersey!

Know EXACTLY what you mean!! Listed my house in PRK today, we're moving to Idaho where my wife grew up before the end of June. My shooting range will begin about 50 feet east of the back door.
When I lived in Texas, my favorite was Quail Creek...take I35W north from FW, exit FM1171, go left back over the freeway and follow the dirt road for about 100 yards to the Quail Creek gate. They're ar-friendly, there's a real good bunch of guys who shoot skeet every Sunday at 9, and the pistol range is not bad. Downer is no fmj for rifles, though most ranges went to that policy toward the end of my time in TX. You will love that state! It is a completely different state of mind. Good luck on your move.
Range I'd definitely avoid is the Winchester range off Northwest Highway in Irving...for some reason (that they never could explain to me), "military rifles" are not allowed, obviously including AR-anything. OTOH, military pistols (1911, HP, etc.) have no problem. Screw them.

Edit to say my head was obviously part way up my butt on this reply...I saw the 'Lake Worth' but not the Florida. Beer intake has been stopped.
