When I lived in Texas, father in law had a nice range set up in his back yard, so it was easy to shoot every weekend, and he has a nice selection of hand held cannons to test drive.

The range that is closest to the house is under threat of closing. Not a bad little spot, have to get there early sometimes or you need to wait for a lane on weekends, nice people, have enough sense to keep big pieces of cardboard for the Mini 14 guys that otherwise are gonna throw brass two rows over. It has been there a LONG time. Stuck it way out on BFE edge of the county, past the Air Force base, few miles past auto dismantler row. The built a little strip mall and what looks like a few blocks of duplexes on the corner where you turn to get to the range, coincidentally, where you turn to get to the closest local auto cross venue. Someone complaining about the noise from the range that was there at least 20 years before their house was built. Maybe they should not have moved in next to the airport and gun range if the noise bothers them. Will still be other options, but farther away. Out in the national forest is best, but that is a fair weather operation, not an option in the winter.
