Find the range closest to you

Six cards at a time, nearest first, each with the miles, type and a phone link.

We never see your location; the sort runs in your browser. Prefer a county? Use the menu.

Straight-line miles. Range coordinates come from each directory listing; five TSSA clubs were placed from their street address.

Every listed Texas range on one map

280 pins from El Paso to Beaumont; Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio and Austin hold the thickest clusters.

Pins open the range page where one exists; the rest go to the range’s own site or a map search.

Browse by kind of range

Indoor lanes, outdoor rifle lines, clay fields, archery ranges, and the ranges whose own listing says the public may walk in.

TPWD runs no public target range of its own: its shooting sports page lists hunter education, youth programs and a mobile sporting clays trailer, and its Target Range Grant Program pays up to 90% of the cost for cities, counties, clubs and businesses that build ranges open to the public.

Ranges county by county

94 of the 254 counties have at least one listed range; each county guide shows them beside its season dates and public land.

Ranges around Texas cities

40 city pages, each listing every range inside a 35 mile circle from the city center, nearest first.
