It required the purchase of a range membership, and memberships are sold through Buffalo Sporting Goods. The Shop: well stocked, clean, professional, with a nice assortment of classic blued steel and wood stocked firearms; and modern black Cerakote and polymer catering to modern shooters (of which I'm not). This is a small town gun / fishing store like I remember from my youth - not some impersonal big box nationwide "all sports" outfitter selling everything under the sun with kids kicking around a soccer ball at the gun counter while dad is showcase shopping. But not here - I felt right at home, thanks to the owner Archie Van Wey. Good old fashioned personal service, and an appreciation for conversation & banter. After a pleasant conversation getting to know one another; I purchased a membership. I then drove a quick 10 minutes over to the range. The Range: well appointed, maintained, clean, with covered accommodations for 25, 50, 100 and 200 yard. Nice concrete ambidextrous shooting tables which mean a great deal to this port-sider / southpaw! No steel targets and no shotgun. (I have to find an equally enjoyable trap range.) Restrooms available via door code, convenient parking adjacent to shooting line makes for convenient transfer of firearms from car to bench. Parking is decently shaded (a must in Texas!) Range is easy to get to and close to I-45 and Buffalo, TX which offers a nice selection of food, fuel and shopping when one is finished. I've been to some real sketchy locations where "anything goes", including careless firearms handling, Tannerite in microwaves - where tree stumps are seats at wood cable spools that are repurposed as shooting tables. This is *not the case here*. Quite simply, if I don't feel at ease, I don't return. Well, I can safely say again, that is not the case here. I felt comfortable and I am looking forward to visiting regularly. With great appreciation and utmost thanks to Archie & BSG, and the folks that help maintain this location.

A great range if you're a safe shooter and your friends are safe too. You're able to go, pay a very…read morelow fee and you have access all day! You can holster draw and set up targets at your leisure. Only thing that might turn people away is that there is no oversight/range master, so you're going to want to be very comfortable around guns and have friends that are smart too.

That may scare many who haven't spent a whole lot of time growing up around all sorts of ranges. My favorite when I am around people who know and trust are ranges like this. I don't like range boys eyeballing my guns and even touching them. The benches are a bit old, but I can shoot responsibly without being on guard, or messed with because I DID not live up to their NEW shooter protocols. Their prices are EXCELLENT, and you can shoot pistols, rifles and clays on ranges that are seperated safely. I will recommend it, but again, this isn't for those who like "high end" ranges. You will enjoy having fun with your family and friends here.

Excellent layout, plenty of physical space, decently wide stalls and an EXCELLENT showcase/firearm selection as well as accessories. I have never experienced overcrowding at this range-as I have on some others- and appreciate the extended ranges for sighting in optics and dialing in that favorite rifle. Glad to see that the staff are uniformly knowledgeable without being overbearing. Also worthy of note is the fact that on my many visits the other shooters have been safety conscious and respectful of others' personal space-haven't had the dreaded unwanted Fudd or 'just turned 18' type telling you that you are doing it wrong or criticizing your gear. Great place to shoot!

People who looked like it was their first time touching a gun (flinching and not knowing how to drop the slide to chamber a round) passed. Don if I remember correctly was a great guy to take a class with he was pretty funny. All the people who work there can talk your ear off and are very nice people including Alice. A good place to go if your teaching someone to shoot for the first time or to zero your optic. I wouldn't come here If you're someone who shoots competitively or shoots regularly. A surprise to me being from CA is that this a fudd range, more strict than what I was used to back home, they don't allow the "general public" to draw from the holster.(kinda ironic that they hold license to carry, but don't let you practice the "carry" part) You can't stand or shoot rifle any closer than 25yards. Very nice people again, but they will treat you like it's your first time shooting a gun (which is great if you just bought your first gun). I used to come multiple times a month and always brought a friend but have since started going to Webers since they allow you to Draw, Double tap, and have a "tactical range" where u can stand using your rifle. With that said you get what you pay for, Chandlers is $15 including 2 targets.

All of the other rifle ranges I've been to in the North Houston area have been absolutely dreadful so I was hoping for a change of pace. The Cawthon Cartridge Club (CCC) is located near Navasota, TX and about 20 miles from Aggieland. The range is on a huge swath of land, I reckon about +800 acres. They have a 200 yard range, numerous uncovered tactical bays with just a few steel targets, several pistol bays and a 5-stand area for shotgun. The entire area (including berms) was covered in a lush green grass that was freshly mowed. The roads were crushed limestone. The owner roves the grounds in a John Deere Gator UTV but other than that there were no Range Safety Officers. I was only interested in shooting long distance so proceeded to the rifle range. Newcomers are restricted to 500 yards and below until they quality with the owner. There were steel hanger targets every 50 yards and at the 500 yard line, there were about 8 different steel targets of varying sizes. The grass was very neatly trimmed and gently sloped downward. Beyond the 500 yard line were targets every 100 yards until 1200. The shooting area was up on a hill with a nice metal shade structure. There were some rickety old benches but I chose to shoot prone. There was a nice breeze blowing into our faces which really helped to beat the brutal heat and humidity. Out beyond the 1200 yard target was a farmer working a field in his tractor. The owner advised us of this beforehand and asked us to hold fire until he was out of sight. This was annoying as the farmer was constantly behind the target area; fortunately I had two people with me, one to spot my targets and the other to keep an eye on the farmer. Hopefully this is not a regular occurrence. I've never shot at a range this nice before. They didn't have as many steel targets as ETTS in Waxahachie but the grounds were much nicer. Membership is $750/yr but they let me pay only for the remainder of 2016. Guests are $25 each and you are normally restricted to two.

There's a metal folding chair and a bench that's too high for it at the 100 so I just went prone instead. So if you're not a member don't expect much. Otherwise, I understand there's some decent long shots to be had there with covered shelters and such. I don't recall the membership dues but it's several hundred dollars.

I spoke with Shane Savage regarding what the outdoor range renting process is and he was super friendly and patient with my questions and guided me through it. It is super simple. You reserve a date and time and hopefully it's open, he sends you a confirmation text and you simply show up. He met with me, gave me a wagon with a fold-up table, free paper target (per person), a staple gun, a bucket to collect your brass, and fold-up chairs. It was a smaller range, but perfect for us, There were both wooden target stands to hang your targets (free to use) and steel targets (for $5 extra or $1 extra for more paper targets). My sons and I were the only ones there so it was nice and private. We signed a waiver, setup our own station, put up targets, and had fun safely shooting your weapon(s). The range is about 50yds, but I specifically brought my kids here so they'd get used to a few of our home defense additions at a realistic distance. He does ask that you pick up and collect your trash and brass. I'd recommend bringing water to drink and a trash bag for your convenience. There is a restroom available. It's a field, so there's really enough parking for you. Shane sits in his truck for the duration of your stay and for any questions or requests that you may have later on. The range is $20 to rent for 2 hours per person, but if you come with more people, there's a discounted price. It was $45 for the 3 of us. I know Shane also teaches classes on safety and other courses, but we've never used those services, but according to the numerous 5 star Google reviews that I've read, it's safe to assume he's an amazing instructor. Very friendly and professional. We will definitely be back in the near future. Mahalo Shane!
