Spokane Rifle Club

The first place to consider is the Spokane Rifle Club. Located near the center of Spokane, it’s a short drive for anyone who lives in the area. There’s a good selection of ranges there, such as 25 yards for pistols or 600 yards for long rifles. The biggest difference between the Spokane Rifle Club and some other shooting ranges is that it is regulated by the members. This means that instead of an employee overseeing the shooting area, the members oversee themselves, such as when someone can walk down and get their target.

To attend the Spokane Rifle Club, you either need to become a member or pay an entrance fee. Many find that joining the club is the more affordable option, especially if you plan on going often. For anyone looking for a friendly environment to do some shooting in the Spokane area, this is a great option.

Center Target Sports

The next option is Center Target Sports. This gun range is located a little outside of Spokane, closer to Coeur d’Alene. Center Target Sports is a great option for anyone who is new to shooting, as there is a full-time gunsmith on staff who can assist you, with plenty of classes for beginners. As for entry costs, a great option is to sign up for a monthly membership, which comes at an affordable price and lets you decide how many months you’d like to sign up for.

Sharp Shooting Indoor Range

Next up, we have the Sharp Shooting Indoor Range. This is another indoor range located in Spokane, so you won’t have to travel very far. The Sharp Shooting Indoor Range offers several classes for beginner and experienced shooters alike, and there’s plenty to learn from the experts on staff. They also have a gun store, making it easy to get all the supplies you need for the range in one place. The Sharp Shooting Indoor Range and Gun Store has received some good reviews online, so be sure to check them out for yourself.

Fernan Rod and Gun Club

The Fernan Rod and Gun Club is located a little outside of Spokane, but it’s worth the drive. This outdoor range is a great option if you’re looking to shoot pistols, rifles, or shotguns or do some archery. They also offer classes and allow members to host group events within their clubhouse.

This location is a gun club, which means you’ll need to be a member to shoot there on most days. However, they do have select days where the public can attend, so contact them to learn if they have any public days coming up or to inquire about joining the club.

Coeur d’Alene Skeet and Trap

Finally, there’s the Skeet and Trap in Coeur d’Alene. This is the place to go if you’re looking to do some outdoor skeet shooting. This place markets itself as a club that focuses on shotgun sports for the entire family. There are several shooting options available, such as 5-stand, skeet, trap, and more. Signing up for a membership to this club will grant you access to the fields, where volunteers can assist you with your activities.

What To Bring to a Gun Range

When you head to a gun range, there are a few things you should bring with you. Always make sure that you have some identification on you. Gun ranges often require you to have ID before they will give you a gun or allow you to use their ranges. If you have a gun license, you should bring it along as well.

Besides this, you can bring the things you’ll need for shooting. This includes a gun, ammunition, and any targets that you want to shoot at. Many gun ranges can provide these things for you, sometimes for an additional fee, but many shooters like to bring their own. It’s common for hobbyists who go to gun ranges frequently to keep all of their supplies in a range bag so they can easily carry everything.

Prepare for Your Next Gun Range Outing With a New Hyundai

As you start to go to gun ranges in Spokane more often, you’ll likely have more things you’ll want to bring with you. This is especially true if you’re going with a group, as you’ll all have your own things to bring. To make sure that you have enough space to carry everything, you may want a new vehicle. Luckily, there are plenty of Hyundai options that offer a great amount of storage space for your next trip to the gun range.

For example, there’s the new Hyundai Santa Cruz. This vehicle is a cross between an SUV and a pickup truck, meaning you’ll get plenty of space for passengers inside, along with a decent amount of cargo room in the bed. There are also other SUV options to consider, such as the Hyundai Santa Fe or the Hyundai Palisade.
