Yep, they run a nice range there. It's right in my backyard, but there's no way I'm paying that much for access. If I competed, maybe, but I don't.

Well, that's what I said about it being alittle stiff $ wise to join. But $25. a month to belong, when you can shoot archery, 5 stand, trap, skeet, separate muzzleloader range, multiple rifle ranges, some out to 300 yards and multiple separate handgun ranges seems pretty fair to me. I guess it depends on how much you like to shoot more than anything. I know alot of guys who only go to the range before deer season, but I also know some who shoot several times every week.

Highpower,

Are you a member of the club you linked to below? Someone I know is a member, I think, and it seems like an awesome facility, at least from the pictures. But yeah, kind of $$, but worth it, I suppose.

$25 a month for the Fairfax Rod and Gun Club? That seems VERY reasonable to me, given what you get for that.

I cut & pasted this from the Fairfax Rod & Gun Club page.

Currently the Associate membership fee is $1,250.00. Active memberships, when available from the Club, have a membership fee of $2,500.00. Annual dues for both types of memberships are $300.00, payable in full on April 1 each year. Based on the present number of applications on our waiting list, there is a projected wait of approximated 3 to 6 months for an Associate membership.
That's a lot more than just $25 per month.

Just went to Sparks Sporting Goods in Martinsburg, WV. Payed less than $5 to sight in my 7mm WSM. Can't beat that with a stick!
