You left out the big one .
Change targets at will , instead of waiting 30 minutes or whatever for the next regularily scheduled ceasefire .

Our areas , are not.your area . If that range is 5 minutes from your home or office ,.you have to decide how much round trip driving time , or lack thereof , is worth to you .
Initial response is that's expensive . But if you're talking Manhatten ( NYC ) , you're just overjoyed that it exists , and open to public .
For ( commercial ranges , open to public for fee ) in typical metropolatian -ish areas , typical rates would be about half that .
Club - Clubs ( not for profit , mutuial association , elected officers , etc ) can run the full gamut . Some of the rural legacy Clubs mentioned above round off to free . Others involve years on waiting list for an opening , and $$ to $$$ for dues , initiation fees , etc .

Hi,
Convenience and cost have always determined my range usage and memberships. Prices vary widely. If you plan to go often enough, a membership is probably worthwhile. I pay $39/mo for unlimited range time at two indoor (sister) facilities that are 6 and 8 miles from me, 50% discounts on most services, 20% discount on all classes, etc. Lucky for me, because I've been a member for so long, I get free rentals too, but I have to buy their ammo to shoot through their rentals. If you just walk in off the street, range time is $25/hr and rentals are $20/hr.
There's an outdoor range not too far (45 minutes) that I've been to a couple of times. It's $20/hr or $35 for all day, basic membership is $465/year for all you can eat. They have 25-300 yards, pistol, rifle, archery, skeet, clay, all kinds of fun.
I hope you can find something that fits.
Thank you for your indulgence,

Both indoor ranges we have keep raising their hourly rates, one is $20 and the other is $28. Both offer memberships which I had at one time at the $28 range, but quit during the ccp plannedemic and they went falsi crazy with "safeguards". They both have expensive improved electronic target systems which have to be paid for.

not only the new and improved gizmo's in the range..Both indoor ranges we have keep raising their hourly rates, one is $20 and the other is $28. Both offer memberships which I had at one time at the $28 range, but quit during the ccp plannedemic and they went falsi crazy with "safeguards".

but..
1) payroll......minimum wage here is now at $15.00 per hour, and some places pay just that, (the one i go to), some pay more per hours.
2) electric bill
3) heating bill
4) taxes
5) state, town, or city fee's for the yearly permit(s)
everything, every place raises the prices, it sucks, and we as consumers wanna go.....??? we gotta pay

Wanna go, but don't like paying for their business -- me anyway.
Well I just found out that the gun club I was looking at has a deal where non-member 20.00 each session, or member 30.00 a month unlimited or 330.00 for the year. I know its not as good as yours but it is better than I expected... The 330.00 equates to 27.50 a month so go twice a month and its paid for itself...

Now, I probably should say that the one I go to is indoor only. 6 lane range.
Limited to 1500 fps.
So it is cheap, but, it's not an outdoors club with many other benefits

Haven't shot at a indoor range in years.
My place is right next to BLM land, I just take the ATV for a ride over the hill and blast away .... Until it snows here in the Northern Nevada wastelands

My indoor range when I went, don’t go anymore due to an a-hole RO, I go now back to my outdoor club, I get free membership due to 30 years as a member and retired, but it’s $100.00 a year for 2 handgun and 1 rifle range, skeet/trap range, lake, camping grounds, private, no set times, go anytime, any day.

Indoor is nice unless they put me next to some old gentleman trying to sight in his AR Pistol in the adjacent bay. I felt the freaking shockwave every round as he chased his laser around. He must've gone through 150 rounds getting it just where he wanted. Gave me a freaking headache lol.

AR folks with brakes or SBR’s need to go find an outdoor.
Total D bag move. Especially when they rapid fire

This is very similar to mine. $250 for family (just adds spouse), or $200 for individual (Veteran or police - not sure about other first responders). Can shoot daily if you like. Otherwise $25 for lane or $20 in those other categories.
The times I’ve been going the last 10 years it’s never busy, so not idea if they enforce time limits or not. I’m usually done between 1-1.5 hours as I generally bring magazines preloaded unless a brand new gun that I haven’t bought extra mags for yet. I like to have enough mags to preload at least 100 rounds. My favorite guns 150-200 rounds worth of magazines preloaded.
As for rules, they have some lanes certain types of guns only (usually based on FPS of rifle rounds), and one that is no shotguns. I’ve never seen anyone get talked to about double taps or magazine dumps (nor have I, and I use double tap, one to head strings almost every trip. It could just be that I’m usually the only one, or one of 2-3 there at the time, with 10 lanes speared into two different sides.
My range also sells targets $1 each, so whenever I renew annual membership, I add 50 targets. I consider it kind of a “tip” because I like having them available. I usually end up adding some about 9 months or so into the year.
All in all, with the amount I shoot (4-6 times monthly), I find it very reasonable. Oh, and they don’t force me to buy their ammo either. They do inspect rifle ammo before you can shoot it (I don’t have a rifle), but I think that’s because folks intentionally violate the FPS rules (which is a safety issue).

For 10 years we have had a family membership($350/year) at “P****** Outdoors” , an outdoor range in the country.
I never go on weekends usually in the middle of the week and usually right at opening.
My last visit was at 9am on a Tuesday morning , 10 lanes and I was the Only person out there. At 11:15 am The owner approached me and says “ just so you know we have a 2 hour limit”
I politely said ok and gathered my things and left.
Not a soul was there when I arrived , during my visit and when I left.
They have it written on website and in range rules that members should not go more than 2 times/week.
I am the guy that always leaves the place better than I found it, I never rapid fire,mag dump, ever. I don’t shoot ar/ak pistols nor do I use frts or binary triggers.
I never go over the 2 times/week rule and never go on a Saturday or Sunday. Long story short I am NOT renewing in the spring. Basically limited to 4 hours a week and Every single time I go he has something negative to say. Never a thank you for tidying things up , or thank you for your patronage. He *cough**Randy**cough is the you’re always doing something wrong type. Nah. There is an indoor range opening in spring nearby with 750 membership fees.
I’ll pay double to be in climate control elsewhere.
