    How far do you travel to your gun club/range

    One of the local farmers I do some pest control for, is thinking about opening some of his land up for public access and building a range outdoors and indoors. With farming like it is he is looking for a way to raise extra cash. He does'nt know how far people would travel so I said I would ask the question of you guys. So how far do you have to go to your local club or range?
    thanks Geoff

    I used to travel miles and miles, but frankly Ive got the ump with it. My club at the moment is no more than 3 or 4 miles away, if that.

    Redfearns is around 10 miles away from me.

    At £35 a year and no range fees I don't think anywhere can beat it on price, or grounds for that matter.

    One is 60 mile round trip. One is 2 mile round trip so it averages out at 31 mile round trip.
