Delaware is 5 bucks, but you have to buy a pass online and print it (easiest way).
But, allow me to promote briar rabbit for a good all around experience. Briar rabbit has a 400 yd rifle range with berms at every 50 yard increment where you can staple targets to a pallet or hang steel from a crossbar. Shooting steel wins out over shooting paper targets! Also, Delaware has no place to tape/staple targets so you must devise an apparatus at home and bring it with you.
But, more about briar rabbit.... The shooters area is covered and nice and spread out so you can have room to breath. Also, like I said... It's covered! You can shoot in the Rain or snow (I've done both).
Also, briar rabbit had really nice individual pistol ranges that have steel fall-down targets. It's really fun to shoot their pistol targets. And, you get a whole area/lane to yourself (and their are walls between you and other people). The lanes are 30 feet wide, and 40 feet deep, and each have about. 20 steel targets per lane.
Briar rabbit also has trap, skeet, and I think they might also have sporting clays.
Briar rabbit costs 10 bucks an hour or 30 bucks for an unlimited day. Or you can pay 100 for the year and go whenever you want for free (essentially).
When I go, I go to the rifle range for 3-4 hours and then to the pistol range for about an hour... So I deff make a day trip out of it. They open at 9, I usually leave my house in Columbus at about 10, sign in at 11:15, and am shooting within 15 minutes after I hang my steel.
I have bee. To briar rabbit. 21 times since July of last year and all it cost me was 100 bucks. Can't beat it!
I'd love to go this Saturday or Sunday if anyone is interested.
There are two other good ranges in the area but they are a longer drive, Thunder valley is supposed to be nice but it have not been there. And, I hear Rainers (or maybe "Rayners") is great too because they have steel hung out to 1,000 yards... But, I have heard its kind of "by appt".
That's my take on ranges near Columbus that I've been to or heard about. Delaware will bore you within 1 hour and I'm a 4-5 hour shooter. That might satisfy you if all you want to do is shoot for an hour and work on extending out to 100 yards.
I will end with this.. "There's nothing better than shooting at steel"
