Church Camp Road Recreational Shooting Site

Church Camp Road Recreational Shooting Site is an outdoor shooting range in Peoria, AZ, offered by BLM out in the desert and open to the public. One reviewer describes three ranges: handgun, intermediate rifle and long range rifle. Another calls it a "nice basic range with metal targets." Reviewers note that the targets are steel; one says there are no paper targets and another that you cannot set up your own.

On the pistol side, several reviewers describe steel targets at 25 and 50 yards, though one more recent reviewer puts them at around 20 and 50 yards. On the rifle side, several reviewers describe targets at 100 and 200 yards, while one reviewer lists steel targets in yards at 200, 300, 400, 500 and 700. Concrete table rests with seats sit at the rifle ranges, and shotguns are not allowed, according to two reviewers. Brooms and dustpans are provided for sweeping up brass, with containers for brass and trash, and restrooms are on site. One visitor notes that the site has sections for shooting at a variety of distances.

Reviewers say the site can get crowded, and several advise arriving early because the site fills up. One reviewer suggests bringing plenty of water and notes that shade is very limited, another recommends a folding table and chairs, and a third reminds visitors to bring their own ear and eye protection. Several reviewers report careless firearm handling by other shooters and advise paying attention to those around you.

For pistol and rifle shooters looking for a shooting range in Peoria, AZ, Church Camp Road offers a handgun range and rifle ranges, all with steel targets.
