How recent is that Ft Dix availability? Since 9/11/01, most military posts have puckered up so badly that it's difficult to even get on base. As far as Central NJ, I'm in the Edison area and there are only two non-membership pay each visit ranges in this area: the Englishtown range you mentioned and "Rip-Off" Ray's Sporting Goods on Rt #22 which is an indoor range. Depending on what type of shooting, frequency, and caliber, you might be better joining one of the clubs.
