Hinton has an awesome gun range. It is very reasonably priced and located just east of town. I believe it's ran by the fish and game association, memberships can be purchased at High Caliber sports in town.

You could quickly burn up more money in fuel than the cost of a membership looking for a good random spot to shoot.

Well I've gone to all places that have gun range memberships in Hinton and no one has keys. Where can I get one by tomorow. I've done a little research on the Hinton range and it looks great. Gonna be disappointed if I can't use it. And I am willing to pay the membership fee and key fee. Any input would be great

Speckle55 is your man in the Hinton area. Had an awesome day out at the range with him and my son and went out and shot 2 rabbits afterwards. He's an awesome guy and won't steer you wrong. A great ambassador for the Alberta Outdoorsmen
