Anyone know a good shooting range in the Wiscasset / Bath / Woolwich area? Hard to get trigger time around here. No hunting / no shooting signs all over the damn place.

Sorry I can't help you out. I made my own at my house. Build up a 3ish foot tall, 4 foot think berm out of dirt when we had a Backhoe here. Perfect for plinking or Pistol. I have 10 acres of land on my side plus 400+ acres of family land on the other side of the road. My neighbor is a avid shooter and doesn't mind the sound, and my other neighbor, a cop, has never complained. So I guess I got it pretty good. How about Bath Rifle & Pistol Club in Woolwich?

I'm right in the middle of Wiscasset so building my own range is out of the question. I'll check out Bath Rifle & Pistol.

Wiscasset Rod & Gun Club on Gardiner Rd up past Mike's Log Cabin but before Gibbs Rd. Yearly membership fee, but not too expensive.

gun rentals

After taking a look at some ranges in southern maine i noticed a few that offer gun rentals and im curious if anyone has any experience with any of them? I didnt see any prices but saw on Weaponcraft.com that their rentals are about 100 dollars plus the cost of ammo and that seems like a really hefty fee. id really like to try out a few pistols before i make a purchase but i cant see spending 200 bucks or so trying out a few different guns, and fondling the grimy banged up ones at cabelas doesnt cut it anymore
