Should be lots of places around you to set up your own range. There's a few places in the BHam area.

Check out:

The range you speak of in Opelika, AL is a private range it's invite only. It's called HardRock. Look up DocB here on the Hide if you want to shot there he is the man in the know for Hardrock. There's a bunch of guys that shoot at Hardrock that shoot at the SCSSA matches.

1st time I ever shot past 100y was at HR, great group of guys, an a fun match. I didn't even own a LR rifle at the time. Fella named Will let me use his rifle / ammo and even spotted me.
I'll be back in BHam next week and plan on making some HR matches this year, you can rid with as long as your not a lunatic serial killer...

Re: anyone from alabama on here?
You can say that. It's not really a "membership" match, more of a loosely worded invitational...
Mr. Bill just likes to somewhat know who's coming, rather that be through directly talking to them, or one of us who frequent there talk to them. You'll have a great time. Bring your A game, it can be harder than you think to hit a 1-2 MOA target... LOL

Re: anyone from alabama on here?
Check with Hoover Tactical. Not sure if he does this but the owner is a great guy and can probably hook you up.

Re: anyone from alabama on here?
Hey JTyson. Bullz I sports is a 25 to 500 yard range on hwy 98 toward lucedale MS just over the MS border . Its public and pay by the day. Just go straight out Moffett road. There is the Pasgagoula shooting club just south of the first exit on I-10 in MS. Franklin creek I beleive is the name of the exit. The Pasgagoula club is set up for 25 to 1000 yards. You must qualify and get your membership card stamped for anything over 600 yards. They are on the internet under Pasgagoula shooting club or center. 100.00 a year to join if there is a opening it is a closed membership (limited number of members) I believe. I'm sure you are already aware of Styx river shooting center on your side of the bay north of I-10.
