The AGC in marriottsville has a 200 yd range.
Thurmont Conservation has a range which is 300 yards.
FT Meade has one which I believe is 600 yards though i only see folks shooting matches on it which are coordinated by the Md rifle club - couple of threads here announcing the matches
Not in MD, but not far outside the border are:
Bridgeville DEA - has a 600 and recently opened a 1,000 yard line
Peacemaker Training has several long ranges

Retired and loving it
200 yd military style at Marriotsville (AGC). If you want to drive foe about 90 minutes, Bridgeville DE has 300, 600 and 1000 yd. I know, you said Maryland. Just sharing.

Stoney Creek Fishing and Hunting Club goes out to 300 yards, but you have to be a member to shoot past 200.

Ft Meade 600 yards. Not matches only but you must be in a club designated to use it. (meade rod and gun, meade rifle and pistol, maryland state rifle and pistol association, meade natural heritage association)
Delmarva Sporting Clays in Vienna has 100, 200, 300 & 500
They charge a little extra for the 500, but you can shoot all day on the 100, 200 & 300 for $25. Open to the public, you don't have to be a member etc

Would go to range in Delaware but refuse to pay 8 bucks to leave the state
Southern MD to Bridgeville is probably more than eight bucks worth of gas
Is The bay bridge six dollars or eight dollars ?

Southern Lancaster County Farmer Sportsmen's Association in Quarryville PA now has a 300 yard range. Lots of Maryland members.
Thx - I always forget about Mayberry as it is members only, and I'm not. Great facility though
Thx for clarifying. I missed that part when reading posts about range time there - posts I've seen mentioned coordinated arrival times and departure times which always exceeded my available time. (I.e. All arrive together and depart at the end of day together). Is that always the case or associated with a club event?

yes it is.
I have been looking for a range of this distance. Does anyone know more on this? I'm looking for a place that can go at least to 600 yards. I live in Mt. Airy. Not much around me except for Peace Maker which hosts a lot of matches and can be a pain to get into the longer ranges.
Are they steel targets or paper? Can you shoot prone? How often are they open for individual shoots?
I wouldn't mind Meade either, but their website is a little vague. Can you shoot long range every month or is it only 2 to 3 times a year (according to their calendar)?

Mayberry is a great facility located between Westminster and taneytown just north of 140.
They have an archery course, a pond, a creek and several pavilions. It is a member only facility and is one of the sites used for a precision rifle match series. The precision series had several different stages at a variety of distances out to 500+ yards.
Given it was a match, I don't know what rules exist for member shooting which may have differed from the match.

Calendar says there is a ground hog shoot today and precision rifle match tomorrow.

There is a 600 yard range out in Garrett county, but the name escapes me at the moment. IMO Bridgeville is the place to go for f class matches. While Ft Meade has matches to combined ******** of signing in and signing out and coming and going as a group is a PIA. There is an Across-the-course match next Saturday 9th, and 10th is 3X600 yard match at Bridgeville.
Good luck
