And by Metro area I mean Twin Cities, suburbs and anything within a 50 mile radius.

I know of very few gun ranges in Minnesota. Actually I know of two. Burnsville Pistol range (or something to that effect) and an outdoor range which I'm told is closed, used to be just outside of St Cloud.

What ranges do you know of/frequent?

This is the most current information that I have found. There are private gun clubs that are not on this list.

oakdale is a great facility for summer shooting and burnsville is where i go in winter...both have good staff people and very knowledgeable and helpful.

last time I was at bills, some "gangstas" walked in and started shootin shotguns and 45's holding them sideways. I walked out and told the guy at the counter that I wouldn't be back...still never have BTW.

There is a whole host of ranges west of the metro with around $40 annual fee, open year round and until the sun goes down. The state DNR website allows you to click on any county and most are listed. I live in Hutchinson and there are at least 10 within a 30 minute drive.

Biils gun shop robinsdale is all I know of. Widh there were more.

I wish there was something in the western area. I live in chaska. I took my carry permit course at Bills in Robindale. I had a gangstar in the class that I attended was holding the weapon side wise and was taken off the range and did not participate in the class thereafter. I wish the guys at the GuN Stop had a range those guys are quality people and you do not get the hood playars in there.

safe and sound with all them toys. I left a message for prior lake gun club about the earlier thread. Also Marsh lake gun club hoping to find a range to shoot at with out the drive. If I am going to send all the time in the truck I can drive to where I was raised around NEw ULM MN the hae a brandnew 15 station indoor range. It is called Hunters DEN

I go to Rainbow sportsmans in Cokato, Gopher Campfire and will try to find someone for Cedar mills as well. Cedar has been $10 for a year, and no one shoots there, so it's a nice easy place to go when the other two have events on the weekends.
