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...
If you shoot north you can hit ancient city (private range) south of jax west of st aug., there’s also saltwater which does a weekly 770yard range if you can qualify for it. Sadly probably the best range in FL is in Baker (Altus).
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?

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.
I did find another called Shadd Farms. 40 min north of Gainesville, about an hour from me in Jax. They open up a 1k range on Friday and Saturday for $30. No website just Facebook page but me and some buddies are gonna check it out when I get my MK20 set up.
