Shooting Range Park

Shooting Range Park is an outdoor shooting range in Albuquerque, NM, that reviewers describe as the city's own range. One reviewer notes several sections for all types of shooting and lots of parking, and another says the targets can be set at 25, 50, 100 and 200 yards. A different reviewer mentions steel targets for aiming at further distances, and one visitor says the choice is long-range or short range shooting. Another reviewer says there is plenty of room, so shooters do not feel like others are right on top of them, and one reviewer mentions benches and target frames that were well maintained.

Rifle shooting comes up often. One reviewer enjoys getting out long rifles and dialing them in, another calls it a good place to zero, and a third spent a day at the 100 yard range with a small group receiving private training on target shooting and firearm safety. Trap facilities get a mention from one reviewer and skeet from another. One visitor took a class there and calls it a big range in the open air.

Several reviewers say the range is exposed and can get windy, and one adds that wind makes it more difficult to zero a rifle. Two reviewers describe limits on what shooters can do: one says rapid fire is not approved and was asked to stop controlled pairs, and another says close-quarters drills are not allowed. Several reviewers describe friendly, knowledgeable staff and range safety officers who keep an eye on safety.

For anyone looking for an outdoor gun range in Albuquerque, reviewers describe a big range run by the city, with rifle, trap and skeet shooting, a range of distances, and classes and training that visitors mention.
