Styx River Range & Gun Club

I’ve decided to write a review about this place since it was my last day shooting here.
Since purchasing my first rifle, I began going here non-​stop. Every weekend I would show up and feel extremely welcomed. One of the RSOs, who went by Mark, assisted with zeroing my scope on my rifle. When I bought my first handgun, he taught me a few tricks that helped suppress my twitch everytime I fired the gun. Very helpful and down-​to-​earth guy. The rest of the staff have a great sense of humor and are the absolute definition of «Southern Hospitality».
Unfortunately, I must continue with my career and go where I am needed. But I’ll definitely be back soon, so I hope this place doesn’t go anywhere.

Predominantly a Skeet shooters range but they have sufficient range for your other shooting desires as well as long as it’s not an everyday home defense shotgun. There are 15 lines for rifle 3 of which are 300 yard lines while the others are are 100 & 50 respectively. The pistol range directly beside the rifle range is separated by a small berm and reaches out to 50 yards with dividers upto as close as 7 yards. Benches and a counter/​table are provided on both firing lines and are serviced by a single range officers post. It should be noted that all the range officers are NRA certified instructors and range officers and from my experience very friendly and helpful, willing too answer any questions you may have and lend their time and experience for advice and such. The shop is average sized but typically stays fairly well stocked with ammo and supplies as well as a variety of firearms leaning mostly on the rifles a opposed to pistols but their selection is impressive. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly as well and more than happy to answer questions and help you find that peculiar or specific item your looking for. Lastly bare in mind that ranges are few around here and that on weekend s they get pretty busy and can in fact be packed.

Styx River Shooting Range is an adequate range for your pistol, rifle or skeet shooting needs. The range is easy to access off of I-​10 at the Wilcox Road Exit. The staff is safety-​conscious (as should be expected). All of the range facilities are outdoors. There is a small shop with a modest selection of handguns, long-​guns, ammunition, targets and other accessories. You may pay per visit or join their club and pay a reduced fee with each session. If you are a frequent visitor, this would be a useful option. — Fire in the hole!
