    Are there any outdoor places to shoot both pistols and high-powered rifles? I would consider joining a club if it is close, but would prefer non-membered.

    I'm in Timonium. I'm a member of York Izaak Walton. About 34 minutes for me. You are not going to get outside shooting without being a member. I tried

    York IWLA does not have work requirements after joining (you will need to do 8hrs before.) Great facility and good people

    Check out York Riflemen. They have a 200 yd range. I think there’s an IWLA near Mt Airy that may have a 300 yd range. Most IWLAs around here seem only to have 100 yd ranges so Mr Airy is unique. AGC has a 200 yd.

    What I’m driving at is that get used to driving further, as ‘closer’ to Towson. I go all the way to Delmarva Sporting Clays or Quantico looking for 500 yds or more.

    I’m sympathetic as I am from Towson originally and know Timonium, etc.

    Elk Neck is a public shooting range in Northeast. $10/day or $50/year. Rifle range up to 100 yards, pistol range, archery range and
    shotgun area

    AGC in Marriottsville is very nice. $225/ year(I think) plus additional membership is required.

    MSI satisfies the additional membership requirement for AGC. That makes it kind of a moot point now...because who isn't an MSI member these days? :shrug:

    I also live in Towson, I belong to the AGC. If you would like to try it sometime just PM me. I go often but enjoy company when I do.

    Agc for me. Msi membership will get you the membership quals. 80+ spots on the 100, 200 yd range, trap, archery and the pistol range. Everything I need but free time to go there costs extra…..

    coming from VA, I miss the state funded, free use, ranges that are down off of 81 and in central VA. You could spend all day out there, the state offers free land and you bring everything else +clean your area. Ah the good times

    Is their only location the one by Mariottsville? A little far for me. I'm between Towson and Perry Hall.

    Sounds like you want something almost in your backyard. Balto. Co. Fish and Game would be for you. Yes, membership involved. In this world, it's hard to have your cake and eat it to.

    We are currently taken on new members but you must have a current member sponsor you.
    I would very much like to become a member, but I don’t know any current members (that I know of anyway). Do you ever have a meet and greet kind of thing for potential members?

    Membership is open now, I have already sponsored a new member, but if you show up Thursday night at the trap range, or let me know is you want to shoot bowling pins, it's the best way to get to know some of the shooters.
