Is anyone else in the Ocala, FL area? Any recommendations on places to shoot within a couple of hours drive? I also still frequent the Myrtle beach area if anyone is from there...
 
Thanks man, I occasionally get to shoot on blanding, but right now all training is off. Did ALS in Perry FL ever finish the 1000 yard range they started working on a couple of years ago?
 
No idea man. I’ve been bouncing around duty stations for the past few years. I’d love to know about anymore than the ones I listed though.
So AmTec less lethal solutions or ALS as we always called them is based out of Perry Florida. In addition to manufacturing quality less lethal products, they have some really cool ranges and training facilities. When I went through their less lethal instructor school (I think in 16), they were building a 1000 yard range.

In the pic I attached it would be just out of sight on the right side of the picture. they had a stacked connection structure that would also allow shooting from a pretty good elevated position. I can not guarantee they ever finished it, but I know Bob Dreher started it when he was there (he’s since moved to another company).

I’m not sure what their stance would be if one wanted to rent range time as they focus on instruction, but I wouldn’t hurt to ask if you are close to it...

I live in the area near Perry and have not heard of any range. It may be private. Bradford Sportsman Farm is
in Graham just a little North of you. 850 yds and you have to qualify, there is a charge. There are some other private ranges
available.
Hope you find a place. Good shooting.

It most likely is private, but they’ve definitely finished it based off current satellite imagery

You got Bradford by Starke and you got Ascot (private) in Palatka. You also got the new range over at Volusia County Gun & Hunt Club by DeLand.
