If SCSA no longer has a 200 yard range the closest range I can think of that does is Kelbleys in North Lawrence.
About 20 miles from the center of Medina. South on OH57, left on OH94, east on Fox Lake Rd, south on Dalton-Fox Lake Road. -- Chuck |

Anyone know of anything in the Cleveland area? Particularly east of Cleveland?
I shoot at the ODNR range too sometimes, but shooting paper can get boring. Any pistol ranges, even? The only one I know of is big bore in Eastlake and I'm not too anxious to use them - too expensive and the guy seems like a bit of an elitist prick. edit |

Logan County Fish & Game Association.
50, 100, and 200 yard/meters (I havent measured it exact so I dont know which, probably yards though) No range nazis (shoot unsupervised) Open from dawn till dusk Seperate range for Logan Co. Handgun Assoc., not really sure how far it is since I prefer rifle shooting and thus, am not a member of LCHA $20 a year membership, available at Guns & Gear in Bellefontaine. probably other places too, but this is where I buy mine. Good shop, too...Clint lets me handle just about anything, every time I go in there, whether I buy anything or not Down sides: No full auto Sunday is Boring Trap/Skeet Day Logan Co. SO gets the range pretty much whenever they want and you just have to wait till their done, sometimes thats a couple days I used to go to the Hardin Co. Coonhunters Club but its only a 100 yard range and theres really no room for more than like 2 people to shoot at once. The Lima club has a 300 yard range? Wow....I might have to get over my intense hatred of Lima and head over there sometime. The 200 I shoot now is kind of pathetic for my .308's. |

Another great place to shoot is at the Alliance Rifle Club range in Malvern . They have 2 highpower leagues ( NEO and Ohio-Penn) that share the range on weekends and alternate between an across-the-course match on one Sunday and a long range 600yard on the next.
A good source for range info is the Ohio Rifle and Pistol Association ( ORPA ) web page they have around 28 ranges and leagues listed and contact #'s |

For Long Range shooters out there , TUSCO rifle club is in the process of building a 1000 yard range , this will be the only range that we will have to practice on. We have Camp Perry's 1000 but can't practice there and ORPA only has one 1000 yard weekend.
I joined TUSCO to support their project because we , the 1000 yard shooters in Ohio , are the ones that are going to benefit. So if you can join , their dues are reasonable. |

I have never shot at ORCO But my friend Andy was a member. The last we knew the range was slated to closed. or was changeing hands cant remember detals. I have shot with the marxmen was a nice bunch. I have been with solon sportsman 2 yrs nice range with a lot of improvements to the 600. I have been with Amboy off and on for 15 yr but we lost our long range. Good for winter games |

My Dad is a member of ORCO. We haven't heard of any closing rumors. We go there maybe 3 times a year. We've shot there with mmsig229 from this site a couple times. They have a nice indoor and outdoor range. You have to go with a member to shoot there. Where abouts is your homestead? |

The 300 yard range is open during Highpower shoots and the first Saturday of each month from 0800-1100 for practice. Editted to add: The HP shoots are open to the public but supposedly the practices are for "members only." If you are thinking about joining Lima Sabres, I'm not sure how long LS is going to be a viable place to shoot. Quite a few rounds have left the range and ended up on adjacent landowners property. I think it's a matter of time before the neighbors get tired of taking incoming fire and file to get the place shut down. Damn shame, it's a great facility but it's run by chimps who don't shoot very much and seem to think running background checks on potential members is a good idea. |

Well that really sucks I just joined the club last year. It great place some of the bolt action nazi's get on my nerves. Could they just build the backstops higher? |

Posted: 12/30/2003 2:09:31 PM EDT
[#19]
The backstops were raised after two incidents of rounds being retrieved from neighboring properties. This was done at the same time the Highpower pits were being built to give you a timeline. The problem appears to be caused by rounds being skipped out of the range from targets being set too low and not impacting in the berm, also there are two "LEO" training classes that regularly use the ranges with little regard for proper weapons handling and safety practices. The chimps in charge are the larger problem. There were proposals made to turn the pistol ranges at such an angle as to avoid shooting towards neighboring properties. They were given little creedence. |

To the best of my knowledge, all of the rounds or complaints of rounds leaving the range have come from the pistol side. There was an incident where a jogger was supposedly peppered when he was jogging by also. |

I have my own land to shoot on, but I'd like to have a range to shoot at too. |

I'm in Columbus and drive to Waynesville (halfway to Cincinnati) to shoot most of the time. If your more East than North, you might not be to far from BriarRabbit in Zanesville. I hit thier 'Rattle Battle' last summer and while it was a VERY long day, 40+ shooters, knocking down steel is so much nicer than paper :) |

Yeah, TZ, I know about Briar Rabbit. I was at the Rattle Battle a couple times last year. It's still 1 hour away from me, and uncovered which is no fun in the sun!
I'm working on a steel plate course at my place, I may end up hosting events rather than messing around with local ranges, which are scarce near me. edit |

The indoor range I go to is The Riverside Range in Cuyahoga Falls. It is on Front Street by all of the car dealerships. You can see their big painted sign from Rt8 South. You can shoo anything up to a 338 Win Mag inside. It is a 25yrd range.
There is also a place called the Deer Hunter. They are on Barber Rd right near the big Fred Martin car lot. Never been there but I have heard that it is OK. Brian |

Watersniper,
I saw your post about Elmore CC east of Toledo. Do you have a contact number for them? Didn't see anything on their site with one. Do you need to be sponsered to join? I'm looking for a buddy of mine who lives in Toledo. He's tried a couple in Monroe, MI, but one of them has a 4 year waiting list, and he just wasn't impressed with the other (don't know the names of them, sorry). Thanks! |

Lima Sabres DO NOT run NRA approved matches. For those interested in having their scores recorded for classification, it is a waste of ammo. Not even good for practice, since the time I went, no one knew how to run a match efficiently. I'm not going back, particularly when Old Trails Rifle Club in Richmond, IN is just as close to me, their matches are NRA approved, and they have their shit in one sack. |

Fairfield Sportsmen Association member also.
I mostly shoot shotgun (skeet), my glock 23, and plink with a .22 Marlin lever action. I am on the waiting list for a Bushmaster ar15 m4a3. This will be my first ar15. I am very interested in shooting one before i get mine. If any of you other ar15 owners that belong to FSA would like to introduce me to the ar15 world email me at [email protected] . I will gladly pay for ammo. I am wanting to learn the ar15 inside in out. From field stripping to detail stripping. Assembling new uppers and lowers and everything. I have always wanted an ar15 but was waiting for the ban to lift to purchase one. I will also be attending the gun show at Sharonville convention center at the end of the month looking for some good buys. So if you want to head out to FSA for some shooting contact me at [email protected] |

Hello. A good amount of us meet at the ODNR rifle range in Trumbal county every month during the warm months. The ODNR rifle range is 2 miles east of Rte 88 on Rte 422. Look for a large pile of gravel to the left and turn down that road. It dead ends into the range. |
