Made the run to c2 shooting range today only to find out no more hourly range rentals.....go to say that sux....where now? I was just going to test accuracy on a ar 10 and 6.5 grendel.... what are my options in the area

Basically there are none. You could wait to see if the club in Wakefield opens membership again, or Lafayette on the Peninsula. If you're really hard up (I was a few weeks ago) you can go to the OBX gun club west of Manteo (outer banks) and shoot all day for $20. But it's a 2+ hr. Drive.
I believe C2 is going to open membership back up late summer early autumn, but it's gonna be expensive.

Manteo... I might have to take the trip...how long are the lanes?

Lupe, 50 and 100 yard rifle ranges. Check it out, Outer Banks Gun Club.

Go to one of the many state owned sighting range that opens from 1 Sept to 31 Marc. Lanes are plenty and go to 100 yard.

Or pm me and I’ll get you setup to use a 200-yard facility here in the private club if you are in the area. I need like a week notice sincerely it is far from me too. The facility is mostly empty now as people went into hermit mode to conserve ammo. I never seen the range so clean (it is always clean) before because people go through trash bins for empty shells (brass and steel) now, even shotgun hulls are victims to scavengers. People who who made fun of me before for saving .22 cases (redneck buckshot) and steel cases (panic room wall fillers) are doing the same thing.
