I'm going to be visiting the Ft. Campbell area this summer and I was just wondering if anyone could point me toward a decent rifle range around there. Thanks for the input.

Sadly, the area kinda sucks. Montgomery county shooting complex has out to 400. There is a public range at LBL that is ok. Private property is the only good option in the area. Rock castle is 2 hours north and K&M is 2 hours south though, which are awesome but difficult to get into for a range session.
That sucks. With all the military presence I figured there would be at least a decent place to shoot.
There aren't any I know of. I'm about an hour from Fort Campbell, in southwest KY. At least not public ranges. There might be some private ranges you have to be a member of like Henry County gun club, but if I remember correctly, becoming a member there is a weird process. I have to shoot on private land, which is fine, but between crop seasons and hunting seasons, I don't get to as much as I like. That's why I'm going to try to join k&m some time this year. If you find somewhere, let me know.
Henry County Gun Club is about 1 hour west of Clarksville, near Puryear TN. They have a 600 yard rifle range with pit service and a covered firing line. They host Tactical Rifle matches, NRA F-class/Mid Range Prone, and Vintage Sniper Matches monthly. Go to "www.henrycountygunclub.com" to see if any of their match dates will fit your schedule. You won't be disappointed if you go.

Good to know man, thanks. That sounds like it could be a good option. Do you know if they have Steel set up?
I'm stationed at fort Campbell currently
Im 99% sure you do NOT have to be military to shoot on range 16. You just need to register your weapons on post at gate 4 with the provost Marshall.
I shoot on range 16 at least every other weekend. It's he old sniper range and is still used for training during the weekdays. Managed by the MWR on weekends.

steel is littered across the field going all the way out to 820 meters I believe.
