CC is where i usually go, aside from the price it's a nice place to shoot, i could do without the range attendant looking over my shoulder and occasionally commenting from behind.

I had a real bad experience there back in the '80s. I showed up to zero the scope on my AR-15. The guy running the place stood behind me the entire time to make sure I didn't "Rapid Fire that THING." I mean he was being a real a$$ hole and getting me so PO'd I couldn't concentrate. I finally ripped off the last five in the mag just to piss him off! That old fart couldn't have got me off the range fast enough.
I've hated that place with a passion ever since. If he'd have just left me alone to do what I'd come there to do, we'd have all been happier and I wouldn't, to this day 25 years later, be bad mouthing the place. I don't care who's running it today, I'll never go back there.
But I'm not bitter. [pirate]
Entirely different management now. The range officers are usually friendly, unless you break the rules (handling a gun during target change, moving an uncased weapon away from the window). That's when I've seen things get loud, and I don't mean gunshots.
Should be called the "Family Gouge Center" .. So I've purchased 3 new weapons this week, thought I'd head down to the Family Crap Center and at least sight them in and shoot a few hundred rounds. I knew it'd be a wait and I was cool with that... what pissed me off real good this time is a little sign outside their crap building... 2 rifle limit, extra rifles, $8 .. Aug. 1 - Sept 30..
So these rat F*CKERs aren't already gouging folks with their $13 range fee - for those who didn't know, the previous concession owners charged $8 and kept the facility in better condition - which I would be suprised to see go up yet again... they want to charge you another $8 for each extra rifle? Ass holes! I'm done with em'.. Range officers talk sh1t if you're shooting EBR's or weapons with real optics on em'.. Once upon a time it was a good solid place, easy to get to - now you have the additional $6 park fee - What happened to them?!?!?!?!?!?!
That sign must be new since the last time I was there (over a year ago).
Sort of makes sense, from their standpoint. They charge a flat, daily fee. I show up with 15 rifles I want to sight in I take up a window out of their limited supply and there are people waiting for rifle slots during the dates you mentioned.
I don't know anything about range officers talking about your optics. I never heard any of that going on.
