Shotgun Range Question

#1

Post by CodeJockey »

Does anyone know a range in Dallas / Fort Worth (I live in Arlington but don't mind driving an hour or so) that will allow shotguns? I can go to Alpine but I want to shoot at a paper target, not at a clay target. I just bought a new Stoeger p350 and i want to try it out. Any advice is appreciated. TIA

Garland public shooting range used to allow shotguns on the far end of the pistol range to shoot at cardboard boxes. Im sure you could get a large box and tape a paper target to it. Might want to give them a call and ask if they still do, i havent shot shotgun out there in 5 or 6 years, but there was a large debris field near the shotgun area last time i was out shooting pistols about 2 months ago.

Alpine will let you shoot at paper targets with a shotgun on the first pistol range, all the way to the right... (15 yards? or is it 20?)

Oh cool, I thought it was limited to the Skeet and Trap sections. I'll just do that then, as it's pretty close to me. Thanks! Do they allow slugs or 00 buck? I know they limit you to smaller shot on the skeep / trap range.
