    Recommendations for a long distance shooting club/range near NOVA?


    Having a hard time finding a place to shoot over 100 yds. Looking for something out to 600+. Peacemaker National looked great until I read their winter hours of operation and the few reviews they have. 1000 yd range only open on Wed, and 600 only open on Sunday. Any other recommendations?

    If you know anyone in the military they can sponsor you on to Quantico. The only other public place that I know of is 340 defense.

    Ive been (told) that hunting is legal along the Blue Ridge Pkwy, by a friend who hunted spring gobblers along there fairly frequently.
    Having driven stretches of that road, the possibility of long range hunting and thereby long range shooting (could) also take place
    in at least some areas. I suppose if you ask, your apt to get the opinion right or wrong from whoever you ask. But does it specificly
    state somewhere its illeagle to do so would be my question. You would be limited to times of year when the leaves were down and
    people traffic would be at its lowest of coarse. But it could be an option worth checking into.
