    Not much around the city have to leave for a decent (legal) rifle range. MCTA in the Stennis area is the best within reason.

    Coast Rifle and Pistol Club is the closest full service range, offering rifle, pistol, trap, and skeet facilities. Open 7 days/week, 365 days/year, 8am-6pm. I've been a member for 6 years and love it. Membership is $200/yr. plus a onetime $200.00 initiation fee.

    Mcta has very limited hours if you are not a member, their membership is affordable and u can literally shoot 24/7 as a member but it's a good hour or more from nola.
    Honey island shooting range is about 45 minutes and only 6 bucks to get in but also has very limited hours Fri-sun.

    FTS in larose/cut off area is the best and closest to new orleans. a little drive from nola, but well worth it. 935 yards, steel targets, good benches, tower to shoot from, etc. great place and worth the drive

    I recently tried the range at Honey Island Swamp. Pros: well run with plenty of range masters and pretty darn cheap. Cons: much longer trip than I would normally want to make and pretty busy, although wait for rifle range was not bad, and pretty fast for pistol range. However, in light of distance,?pistol stuff will be done in indoor ranges closer to home

    Thank you for taking the trip out to shoot with us at Honey Island. We are a bit of a drive for almost anyone, but I feel we make up for that in value by only charging $6/day and offering a clean, safely run outdoor range for shooters to come enjoy our sport.

    If it was the weekend after Christmas that you came out, that's our most busy weekend of the year. Everyone wants to come out and play with their shiney new toys! Hahaha!

    I worked the pistol line that Friday and the rifle and shotgun lines had a waiting queue for nearly the entire day while the pistol line was packed nearly to full all day. Although it's usually pretty busy just before and during hunting season, we very rarely are so jam packed that we have a waiting queue on any of our lines.

    We are adding another set of metal plates for pistol shooting at the pistol line soon so that should help get more shooters in and out faster since there will be no wait to have to put out paper targets if you're just coming to sling some lead at metal.
