So I live in around the Germantown, WI area.  What rifle ranges would you recommend nearby?  I have my first AR15, and I'm looking to taking her out shooting!  I was eyeing the Saukville Rifle and Pistol Club.  Any recommendations or thoughts?

Or try Menomonee Falls Rod and Gun- you have to be a member or at least tag along with someone.

Saukville is mostly a trap club that happens to have a 100 yard rifle range.  I get yelled at 50% of the time I go there for rapid fire.  Let me know if you need a signature for a membership.

+1 for da' Boone.
I work in G'town and it takes me 15 minutes from my office. I practice High-power shooting every Tuesday from about 5-7, email me if you would like to go along. They are very black rifle friendly with a couple of AR leagues.

Daniel Boone is a bit "Fudd" in their rules, but it's tolerable, and they have a very nice facility. Not a member, but I've been there several times for vintage C&R military rifle matches. I've also done a few "running deer AR" matches which were great fun. I would probably have joined them if I lived more west/northwest in the Milwaukee area.

IIRC, D.B. does have rapid fire rules (excepton for matches/events that require it), and they don't allow any "humanoid" targets, even ISPC/USPSA "box & octagon" targets on the 25 yard pistol range are forbidden. FBI B-27 silliouette's are a no-no obviously. Anyone who knows better, please correct me if this is no longer the case.

Thanks for the tips guys.  I hope to get out soon here.  Going out of town for a week, but when I get back, it's range time!

Just curious, but why the no-no's for sillouette targets?

Because guns are for shooting animals - not humans... DUH!    


(that's honestly the logic with most fudds in my experience  )
