  • ODNR’s Public Shooting Ranges list has 40 entries and every one is in this table; 24 are Division of Wildlife ranges and the other 16 are archery ranges in state parks, on Tri-Valley Wildlife Area and at Lake Vesuvius, plus three state forest ranges.
  • Class A, B and C ranges call for a shooting range permit from anyone 18 or older: $24.00 for the license year, $5.00 for one day, or $29.12 bundled with a resident hunting license. Permits come from license agents, online or the HuntFish OH app, never at the range.
  • Class A ranges have staff on the line: Woodbury Wildlife Area, Delaware Wildlife Area, Deer Creek Wildlife Area, Spring Valley Wildlife Area and Grand River Wildlife Area.
  • Class D archery ranges (29) need no permit and charge nothing.
  • Where a range page posts no hours, the Ohio Administrative Code rule for Division of Wildlife target ranges applies: sunrise to sunset, or the hours posted at the range.

All 40 entries from ODNR’s Public Shooting Ranges list (PDF); hours, fees, layouts and the range point from each Division of Wildlife range page on ohiodnr.gov where one exists. Permit prices from the 2026-27 Ohio Hunting and Trapping Regulations; default hours from OAC 1501:31-9-03. Checked November 6, 2026.

ODNR public range questions

What is the count of ODNR public ranges in this Ohio list?

40 as of November 6, 2026, 40 of them from the ODNR list.

In which Ohio counties are ODNR public ranges thickest on the ground?

Portage County leads with 2, ahead of Muskingum (2), Preble (2) and Vinton (2).

What do the ODNR range classes mean?

Class A is a supervised rifle and pistol range, B an unsupervised rifle and pistol range, C an unsupervised clay-target shotgun range and D an unsupervised archery range; O marks other public ranges the Division does not classify, and an asterisk means supervised trap and skeet.

Who runs the public ranges that are not Division of Wildlife ranges?

The state park archery ranges belong to the Division of Parks & Watercraft, Harrison State Forest, Fernwood State Forest and Zaleski State Forest to the Division of Forestry, and Lake Vesuvius to the U.S.⁠ Forest Service.

Can this page sort Ohio ODNR public ranges by distance?

Yes. The location button orders the cards by straight-line miles, and the county menu does the same from a county centre without sharing where you are.

What do Ohio ODNR public ranges expect shooters to carry?

Eye and ear protection, a cased and unloaded gun, ammunition the range allows, your own targets and, at a Class A, B or C ODNR range, the shooting range permit if you are 18 or older.

When was this Ohio list of ODNR public ranges last checked?

On November 6, 2026, source by source; rows that could not be confirmed stay off.

Why is a pin sometimes placed in the middle of a town or a property?

A listing point that did not match its own town moves to the town centre, and ODNR list entries without a range page use the property point; the card says which.
