Triple N is very nice out south of Holopaw on 441. It's another FWC range with 50 ft, 25 yd pistol ranges, 100 and 200 yd rifle and 2 sporting Clays courses. $13 for rifle/ pistol and IIRC about $38/ 100 for clays if you bring gun and ammo. Open 5 days except Tues and Wed. Nothing close by for food and such tho. Joe

most call it the best range in FL, even though its primitive right now!
Area Firearms Training Center
its best to check their Facebook page for info and directions, right now its only open on the weekends like 9 to 2, but they often have special events, so check before you go.
the just started pouring the concrete for the firing line, eventually will cover it, 100 yd berm, and steel at 200, 300, 400 and 500.....they have longer range available from the tower but you need to qualify. you need to bring everything, ez up tent, table ( there are some shooting benches ), targets, target stands...they do have a manual trap thrower that almost always available

they just started the concrete work this past weekend, I think ( work permitting ) we are headed out there next weekend if you want I can bring that coke machine out and you can at least meet us, check out the range and fire off a few rounds, bring your gun stuff because you'll be pissed to come out and not have your stuff to shoot
you'll have to get the info from FACEBOOK, while your there look us up

Sheesh.
Proofreading - it’s not just for breakfast any more
Man I just wasted 20 minutes doing searches and coming up with squat. Then I accidentally stumbled upon it another way. It’s
Ares Firearm Training!
So for those who will search and find nothing, one letter makes all the difference. Ahem. Rent.

Yeah, I shot at Ares at the recent full-auto Expo--got to try a Barrett 50 and suppressed Rem700, AR15's, and mp5. I had a great time. Mud (recent heavy rains) was an issue, though, getting around. I hope the range can do some improvements on its roads there, for that reason. My RSO there was super nice to me and the wife. We'll definitely go back.
I didn't like the National Forest range in the Ocala area. Way too busy. I haven't tried the Triple N or the new Kissimmee area WMA ranges.
(whipped this post out without checking the exact names of these places, so sorry if I'm a little off. you know the ones I'm talking about).
