New to area. Have been using the public range near Shelby NC, but now looking for nearby (within 30 miles of Valdese, NC) shooting club to join. Main interest are rifle and handgun.
Have visited Catawba Valley Wildlife Club near Vale, NC. Nice facility but highly restrictive on shooting on the move, and more focused on shotgun than rifle and handgun.
Visited Carolina West Shooting Club near Marion, NC. Closed on Sunday except for BB guns. Lol. Very poor range arrangement with questionable focus on safety. Doubt this range would pass a NRA range safety inspection. Accident waiting to happen there in my opinion. Would not return there even on Sunday with a BB gun.
The range in Caldwell County was shut down due to noise complaints. Heard the owner didn’t abide by the county permit.
The proposed range for Alexander County was denied by the county.
Getting tough to enjoy shooting. Any other ranges that I’m not aware of close to Valdese, NC?
