Very professional, friendly and safe. Well maintained. I highly recommend this range. And Grumpy is gone. Bill Ramsdell read more

Like a transcendental-meditation guru who secretly watches the Family Guy to relax; like an English professor who craves Archie Comics; like a nutritionist who harbors a deep, insatiable love of fried Spam: I am a Los-Angeles-born, surf-board-slinging beach-girl who just can't get enough of this "Texas" business and, in particular, all the opportunities to shoot inanimate objects. Eagle Peak Shooting Range, however---even judged by my fairly inexperienced, never-seen-a-gun-before-in-my-life-before-recently standards---is clearly a rare gem. It's unreasonably inexpensive: $10/day to shoot all you want---on the pistol range, rifle range, or shooting skeet (plus $10 for your membership card the first time you come). It's very big, well managed, and staffed by a helpful, if frighteningly Second-Amendment-obsessed, staff. Most importantly, however: an Osama-Bin-Laden target is only $2 extra. The entirety of this great country's military-industrial machinery couldn't put a bullet in Mr. Bin Laden; you, however, can do it as much as you want, all day, for $2 plus the cost of admission. I'm really not supposed to have this much fun shooting terrorists; and, okay fine, I probably wouldn't be admitted if they had a "No Ironic Pistol-Slingers" sign at the door; but, seriously, this place is fantastic. It's cheap. It's big. It's out in the middle of nowhere. After a day of shooting things, getting your jeans dusty, getting hit in the face with flying shells and pumping your terrorist-target full of little holes, you will go home singing "America, F*ck Yeah!" at the top of your lungs---and, for a few minutes at least, really, really mean it. read more

There are many things I like/love about Eagle Peak Shooting Range and there are a FEW things I can't stand. In general, there's not much that would ever keep me away. First the good stuff: It's an old place, but quite functional. Best of all, at least for me, it is VERY close to where I live. The range masters run a very tight operation which I GREATLY appreciate because I can't believe what some people do at the range. They run their cease fire operations like hawks which is great. Price is super affordable but bring your own ammo (IF YOU CAN, SEE THE NOT SO GOOD BELOW). The not so good: someone else put it best. A BUNCH of grumpy old men. I'm probably older than one or two of the Range Masters but I'm NOT grumpy. There's no reason to be rude. I was a champion marksman/competition shooter in the military, know my firearms and safety inside and out. A little courtesy, especially for FREQUENT visitors would be nice. I go, but I think the treatment is mostly rude, even when its not busy. ALSO.... the NO FMJ on the rifle range is stupid, stupid, stupid. I was told the policy is to prevent ricochet--huh? Have you seen what a .223/5.56 round does just from hitting dirt? It obliterates, It's not going to ricochet. Don't make me buy your high-priced JHP ammo just because no one else on the planet carries it, or can get. Their concept of rapid fire is kind of dumb. I think they recommend 1-2 seconds between shots. I mean really, I'm practicing for self defense, if I were EVER in a situation that required it, I need to be more comfortable firing, recovering and firing again much more quickly, with a modicum of accuracy. They REALLY need to replace and keep the shell ejection screening maintained--not just better--SOME. Almost every station has torn or missing screens and I've had more hot rounds down my shirt, in my pockets, etc. Screen is cheap, c'mon guys. read more

This is not the place to go if you expect to be treated like a person, like places that are ran correctly, or expect there to be adequate staffing. When you walk out onto the range, there are no signs to tell you which range is which, we saw no safety officer for an hour, and when we did, he was a complete jerk. I would go anywhere but here. The staff is completely unprofessional. Ran by a bunch of old codgers who think you run a place by yelling and cursing at people. read more

I really want to give these guys 5 stars because superficially they look good but after many visits, I just can't. Safety is absolutely first priority here but they are real asswholz about it. The guy at the counter is taking care of business fine but the ability to communicate to human beings in lacking for sure. The RO is hot or cold. Mostly cold. He seems to enjoy embarrassing folks by loudly calling them out for their range rule infractions for ALL customers to hear on BOTH the pistol and rifle ranges. When he turns dick on people, everyone stops and watches like a train wreck. He has no problems yelling at 8, 10, 12 year old kids for their parent's lack of following the rules. If you want to make sure kids don't enjoy shooting guns, these old shitz are your answer. Maybe the POTUS should hire him to drive people from the sport! On what will likely be my final visit I, for example, got a new AR for Christmas. I did not have a case yet so I carried it out to the range. They were in a cease-fire so nobody was allowed to handle the weapons - agreed and understood. But I HAD NO CASE and had JUST left their offices. I had a bright yellow chamber safety plug in and trigger lock on but he immediately began yelling at me and wouldn't STFU to see I had to carry the gun with my hands because IT HAD NO CASE. I feel safe here but do NOT feel comfortable which does lead to accidents. Because of the tyrannical behavior, I feel I need to focus on their range rules more than safely handling my guns and improving my competency and skills. "Safe" like traveling down the Interstate with police cars on all four of your corners BUT then you begin to focus more on NOT breaking traffic laws rather than driving and paying attention to the road. The final straw was that they DO NOT allow FMJ ammo on the rifle range. Seriously? Restrict damn near every target round WallyWorld and Academy sells??? I'm out. read more

"The range is hot! The range is hot!" POW! POP! TAT! BOOM! K-ZING! BOOM! POP! CRACK! PEW! PEW! (Okay, I totally just made up those last two.) I recently went shooting with my boss and two of my co-workers over the labor day weekend. I believe i could be described as a gun n00b so I had to watch the video, get the lecture, become a member, etc. etc. I'd make the following recommendations: 1. Put your ear protection on in the car. 2. Don't be sassing anyone who works there. Seriously. 3. This is one of the better places to go if you tend to get nervous around firearms. Everyone around us was really friendly and helpful and seemed even a bit amused at three girls shooting guns. 4. Bring lots of ammo. 5. Be careful. 6. Have fun! read more

Management is rude and controlling. This range would be nice and a lot of fun if the owners/management weren't so condemning of customers. I've only been here twice but it's been nothing but problems. Today I watched them pull a guys membership because he was confuse about the rules- they said he had an attitude problem. I know for a fact that different ranges have different rules, but they accused the customer of trying to break a state law. I don't think I will go back. I did some research and found that the owner also owns the Garland range where there have been several problems, a death, an law suits. I guess these guys are just so reactionary, but they still don't need to be rude to everyone. read more

I tried to go back out of loyalty to the owner. Can't do it anymore. The grumpy old men on a power trip are too much to take. They seem incapable of being polite. Sorry Dee...your employees are jerks. read more

The range itself is good enough to earn a 3 star review, but the official specially today May 8, 2018 is so rude he probably thinks he's a drill sergeant of the North Korean Army ( for me that action is disrespectful, arrogance and headstrong in short that is an act of an uneducated individual). People will make mistakes in observing your range rules, what can you expect it's their first time. Teach your customer how your rule works, I assure you they will learn, be patient with your patrons since they are your bread and butter. I will still go back there but hope to see some changes on how they treat patrons who are making some unintentional mistakel . Discipline does not necessarily mean you need to belittle or humilate others. So for now I'll give a 1 star. read more

It's a bit of a drive but I love this place. Two important notes: 1. They allow some seriously loud firearms so you might consider putting your ear protection on before you get out of the car (seriously). 2. They only take Cash and Checks and there's no ATM. read more

Pros: Great facility. Great price. Great Range Officers. Cons: Old guy inside. Ammo prices are outrageous. (Like 2X!) Tip: Bring your ammo and don't go near the bench during a cease fire and don't go near the bench during a cease fire and don't . . . . Long version: $10 mandatory, lifetime membership. $10 to shoot all day. Really a sweet deal. So, you may read others complaining about the staff. OK, the old man inside is a grumpy old fart. Went there with 2 other buddies, and it was the first time there for each one of us. The range officers were really nice. Sure, they were strict on the rules. But, they are that way to keep us all safe! Upon arrival, we asked about the "box range" for shotgun shooting. The range officer escorted us over to the range, explained the rules. Since we had bought some clay birds, he said, "If you've never used our throwers, come get me when you are ready to go over to that range, and I'll show you how to safely operate them. After we got done turning cardboard boxes into dust, we fetched the R.O. He happily came over and showed us how to use the throwers. We, then, headed to the pistol range. We each were on the receiving end of some hollering. Why? Because, we did things we weren't supposed to do during a cease fire. Nothing malicious, mind you. But, each of us -- on separate occasions -- returned to, or touched something on, the benches (bottle of water, a target, an empty bag). How is anyone to know what you are doing near your gun when others are down range? The guy that had yelled at us was just doing everyone else there a favor. And no, we weren't the only ones that got yelled at. I appreciate his attentiveness. Spend some time talking to the guy throughout our time there. Nice guy. Don't get your feelings hurt, and then write a bad review because you are a cry baby. Now, as far as the old man inside goes..... -1 star. I have a lifetime membership. He won't be around that much longer. Frankly, he wasn't an ass to any of us. But, I witnessed some of his BS. read more

Horrible experience today. This was my 2nd time to visit this range. I'm a stickler for safety; so I am extra vigilant to follow all of the rules. We brought my 18 year-old daughter for her first time as a birthday gift. We bought 3 new memberships at $20/each, plus paid 5 admission fees at $20/each. So, we paid a total of $160 in cash- for what ended up being a total of 15 minutes on the range before we were treated harshly and left. The range officer approached my 65 year old father, who was teaching my daughter how to shoot for the very first time and yelled at him from behind, "sir, is that a loaded gun you are showing her?" My dad replied, "no sir, this gun is not loaded. There is the magazine lying on the counter." The range officer yelled at him a 2nd time, "don't point that loaded gun at the roof! Don't you see the bullet holes up there?" My dad replied, "this gun is NOT loaded, sir." The RO got even more rude and said, "don't lie to me. You just told me that it was loaded." My dad said, "I just told you that it was NOT loaded," and he pointed at the magazine lying on the counter again. The RO yelled even louder, "Don't point that loaded gun up in the air like that!" At that, my dad sat the gun on the counter and stepped away and politely asked the RO to see for himself. My daughter started crying because she was so scared; so we just packed up and left. No refund. $160 for 15 minutes on the range. I'm not sure if the mental state of the RO was stable today; but I'm not sure that I will go back. Last time was not like this; so I expected a similar experience. Not the case. And, my daughter's first experience of a gun range was traumatizing. read more

Great facility- horrible staff. Safety is really important at any range, so is communication. There is a way to warn someone and enforce safety without being a DBAG..these guys dont know how to do that.. If you want to go to a place on your day off that will have staff scream at you and other folks for minor things..go to this place. Better yet, bring your kid/wife and have them get yelled at by a grown man and potentially ruin the sport for them(seen it done there). If you want some one to treat you like a child that shouldnt even own a firearm b/c some guy who thinks he is the F'N president of DBAGness is the range officer, go to this place. Dont read the reviews here, visit any online firearms forum for TX- they will say what I am saying. Luckly we are in TX folks. Plenty of other options around this area. Nice little range up in Liberty Hill with great staff. I can think of another one down in Lockhart. Private range down in Manor worth every penny. I live 5 minutes away from this place, I gladly drive 1hr to Manor to avoid this place. I would rather see my guns sit in the safe than shoot at this place. This post reminds me, time to go throw out my 2 yellow cards from my wallet into the trash. read more

I have been going out to Eagle Peak for 7 or 8 years. Pretty mixed experiences. Facilities - The pistol range is decent. Sometimes the target boards are shot up and unusable. They don't care and won't change it out until the next day. Range Officers - Most of the officers are grumpy old men with a focus on safety. They pride themselves in the 'grumpy' reputation. There have been two that were just incompetent and unable to control the range well on a Saturday and were looking to pick a fight and throw their weight around because they were so lost at managing the shooters. They were creating an unsafe conditions rather than keeping people safe. Crossfire on the range - years back when the ranges were on different ceasefire schedules there were instances of crossfire from the pistol to the rifle range. Not exactly sure how that was happening, but actually met a guy who was nicked by something off the pistol range when he was setting his target on the rifle range. Price - I wish I could say the prices were good, but it has gotten quite a bit pricier. As of July the range entry fee went from $10 to $15, range card from $10 to $15 and gun rental from $12 to $15. Their statement was that their costs have gone up and they needed to raise prices, don't like it go elsewhere. One could spend a bunch of time debating that, the check for the range card should be less than $2, that price is pretty consistent in the market place. Gun rental fee bump was modest, but they didn't expand the available guns available. Since the number of folks coming through the doors is 3x what it was years back, it is surprising that they needed to increase the fee. Brass - Along with overpriced ammo, the range officers collect the casings almost as fast as they hit the ground. This is a huge revenue stream for the range. Even if you are keeping your brass you have to watch out because they are trying to get it from you before you gather it. There have been a number of improvements on the shotgun range. More and improved throwers. It was hit or miss to the old throwers working on a given day. I would have given the range a 4 stars but with the price increases, it is more affordable to join some of the private ranges if you are going to shoot 4 or 5 times in a year. read more

As everyone worth mentioning has mentioned, the prices here are great. For Austin folk like myself it's a bit of a drive, but it's still worth it The guys who run the place do have a style all onto their own, but that's not a negative. It's a salt-of the earth way about them with a dash of momma-didn't-raise no fool attitude. My advice, "Do what they tell you to." It's their range, don't be a jerk, profit. I used their throwers and had no problems. They were happy to go over the proper way to use them, and offered my girlfriend and myself some helpful safety tips to keep in mind while on the range (I hadn't shot in a long time and my girlfriend had never been). Overall, I carry my $5 lifetime membership card to eagle peak with pride. In closing comments about the bad-assery of this place, it's open 365 days a year which somehow I find awesome...(take that every holiday in the world!). read more

Ima be real ,don't go here if u want to have fun , this place is for gropey old men who enjoy giving people hard times ab their "rules" , if you can deal with no fmj and 20 mins between each target check this place is great for u , so again if u wanna have a shity, and expensive first range time , come on down and regret coming back . I'm not even tryna hate bc they didn't give me that much shit but it made not want to go to a range again , better to just shoot at a friends property read more

I haven't felt more Texan in a long time. The fact that there's a place 30 minutes away from downtown Austin where I can show up with 300 rounds of shotgun ammo on a Sunday and blast away at clay targets until my shoulder is black and blue makes me proud to be a Texan. If you haven't been out to this place, you really really need to go. Here's how it works: 1. You pay $10 to become a member (for life, as they say... your membership expires when you do) and watch a 6 minute safety video. 2. You pay 10 more dollars for range access for the day. That's it. After that, they let you loose to run around their facility for as long as you want. There is a certain vibe of conservative right-wing-ness that you don't see in Austin, but it fits the place perfectly. Oh, and they also have guns for rent if you want to check out a few pistol models before purchasing one for yourself. 5 stars all the way! read more

-Admission is now $15/day, which makes it less of a value, but brings Eagle Peak in line with Best of the West and Lone Star gun ranges -No FMJ on the rifle ranges. Supposedly due to a pending lawsuit. Boooo -The range officer in charge of the pistol range has gotten more....overzealous, than I've seen in the past. Mind your P's & Q's -They aren't huge fans of Class III weapons. The recent changes make this less of a bargain, though it's still a decent range in its own right. read more

Went out to the shotgun range yesterday. Had a few buddies who'd never been to this range before and they were asked to watch a video. I'm a member and ran to restroom and came back out and was going to enter the video room. Elderly man working counter yelled at me to shut the door and not go in once video has started. Considering everyone I was with are very experienced with firearms (hunting, military, all chl holders) I thought it was quite rude. He continued to be a grouchy old man that clearly was pissed and taking it out on his customers Also who doesn't have a credit card machines these days? We're moving to cashless society and I'd rather pay a small convenience fee than use their expensive ATM. Guess grouch man likes to nickel and dime everyone to death. One star because range officer was extremely friendly and actually helped us carry our gear up to the shotgun range. Ammo rules are ridiculous. I'm not spending $1/rd to shoot rounds when fmjs are so cheap. Put some money back into the range and invest in the upkeep otherwise you're going to continue to lose members to superior ranges and better customer service I can't say that I'll be back which is sad cause this place has potential. That old guy just really rubbed me the wrong way. Be nice to your customers! read more

Very cool place. The staff is accommodating to new shooters as well as veterans. They allow you to bring as many guns as you'd like, and you are free to jump from rifle range to shotgun range to pistol range as you please. It's cheap to shoot, but the ammo and clays are a little pricey.....but if you bring you own gun you can bring you own ammo and your own clays. My only downside is that they don't accept cards, but that isn't a big deal as long as you are prepared with cash or a check. read more

What do I like best about this range....safety, safety, safety. Yep, the range officers here are really on top of their game. They are alert to every single little stupid thing that a newbie might do, and that is exactly what you want at a gun range! Plus, they are all around nice guys. If you get a chance to talk to them, you'll find that they are very helpful and very knowledgeable....even about bowling. On your first visit you will have to sit through a safety film. Pay attention, because the rules in the film are the rules of the range. Break the rules and the range officers can kick your butt out. And, trust me, the rest of us will want them to, because we don't want to get shot by some careless person. You will have to bring cash because they don't do credit here. But the range is inexpensive. Best of all, this is an outdoor range. I will be honest and say that I just won't go to indoor ranges. And, even less inclined ever since Mike L said got hit with a ricochet on his last visit to an indoor range. If you are a girl, like me, you may like their girl's shooting club. You can come and shoot with other girls after work, and get helpful pointers to improve your aim. Remember this is a sport, and the whole idea is to get more shots in the center circle than everyone else. They also offer a skeet shooting range. And, while I do not ever want to go shoot a duck...I don't even want to eat duck....I do want to shoot at inanimate clay targets falling across the sky. Yes, I said falling...every time I say flying my physics freak hubby points out that even something going up is actually falling....makes no sense to me but, what the heck...just go go shoot at falling clay things....I promise you'll like it. (Oh, and one last tip...no FMJ on the rifle range, but FMJ okay on pistol range. Again, that's for safety, so deal with it.) read more

I really like how the range is close to home but that's the only thing to like here. The staff members are rude and the owner is worse. They have stupid rules that are made to squeeze ever last penny out of the shooters. I will go to Best of the West from now on. Best of the West is a friendly, helpful shooting range. read more

The price is good. $10 for the whole day, once you pay for the life time membership $10. I normally go there during the week, and it's quite peaceful. Not too many people go there early in the morning, so I get to have the whole range by myself. I like it there a lot. I'm planning to go there at least once a month. read more

First, The Good: 1. It's very cheap. It's $10 for an entire day, in which you can move around from their pistol range, to their rifle range, to their shotgun range. Just make sure to bring your own ammo, targets, clay pigeons, etc. 2. It's outdoors, so you aren't breathing in a bunch of lead-laced gunpowder fumes, like you do at some poorly ventilated indoor ranges. 3. The range officers will yell at you if you do something wrong. Trust, me, this is a GOOD thing when it comes to firearms. I mean, do you really want someone handling a loaded gun while you are down range changing out your target? The correct answer is NO. Now, The Bad: 1. The clay pigeon throwers they have on the skeet range need to be replaced. 2. Because of the fact that it is an outdoor range, there is always a chance that you will be shot in the buttocks (or worse) by some shlub who wasn't paying attention to the rules, and decided they were going to spend the cease fire reloading their gun. 3. They don't want you to pick up your own spent brass. This is mainly a problem for reloaders. 4. They DO want you to pick up your own spent shotgun casings. This is mainly a problem for lazy people. read more

I've enjoyed shooting at Eagle Peak for a couple of years now. Although not overly friendly the folks that work here are professional. Most importantly I feel safe using the facilities. I've been to only 3-4 different facilities in the Austin area, and this is my favorite. I like the $10/day come-and-go policy with no additional charge for multiple weapons. read more

So it's been a while since I've visited Eagle Peak. I trekked out there today to go through a couple hundred rounds of 9m & 45c with my Ruger SR 1911 Lightweight, Taurus PT111g2 & M&P Shield. What a great afternoon!! I was greeted immediately upon entering the very well air-conditioned office. Asked how I was doing, how had my week gone, etc...Paid my range fee $15.00....for the day... & was reminded to put on my ear protection before exiting. I was greeted again by the range manager, Bob. He mentioned a few of the rules and let me know if I had any questions to flag him. Bob ran a very professional line, but was not hovering over shooters or overbearing in any way. I did have one dbl feed and due to a strained thumb, couldn't clear the pistol. Bob, came over and assisted in clearing it...with a smile. Couldn't have had a better experience this afternoon. Thanks guys. read more

I went here with my dad, brother and his son for a quick trip to the range. I was down for a visit to Austin and I am glad I went to this range. At first you walk in and you see a couple guys talking and helping out other customers. Since this was our first time at the range we watched a 6 min video which was poorly made but it got the point across. We rented everything since we did not have our equipment with us. The range and the employees are VERY strict about their rules and I am glad they are. They might seem a little mean but everyone was safe and aware. Nice outdoor shooting range and good selection of rental equipment. for two hand guns, 2 boxes of ammunition, fees to get into the shooting range, $10, taxes and glasses... about $160 for 4 people, not too bad. The only thing that really turned me off to this place... is when they pick up the casings. The range guide (who is out there the whole time to help) was picking up casings that were on the ground behind the shooters. AS THEY WERE SHOOTING!!! When I was shooting if I did not see him out of the corner of my eye, if I took a step back I would have tripped over the roller he had to pick up the casings. I dont understand why he would not do the pick up or someone else when they have a seize fire session? Other than that, I will be back to that range when I come back down to Austin. read more

no BS. good service. treated like an adult. can't say the same for Lone Star Gun Range. they treated our group badly so we went to Eagle Peak and continue to spend money and time here. thank you for being patriots. read more

Great little range. I go there sometimes with friends and family, mainly for the shotgun range. The staff there is great as long as you actually know how to use a firearm safely (like anyone with common sense). Sure, the first time you go there is expensive since you need to get a membership card before you can shoot but after that it's only $20 per visit for as long as you want. I've been going there for two years, ever since I've been here in Austin. Never had a bad experience, despite the few bad reviews on here. Definitely recommend going, can't wait to go back once this quarantine is over. read more

So this place ONLY accepts cash or check. Would have been a nice heads up if I had known that before driving 30 mins to the middle of nowhere and getting lost several times. But, hey, I can accept that that was my mistake and I should have done some more research. And I might be ok with taking responsibility for still being ignorant of this little fact when there was no sign outside the shop door or even near the cash register. But when I've selected my eye and ear protection gear and am directed to watch a 5 min video on shooting range safety and all the procedures and about 2 mins into it someone says "We only take cash or check" THEN I'm a little annoyed that I drove all the way out here and JUST found out that my plastic is no good here. It just doesn't make sense that when I'm expected to buy ear and eye protection gear (because the last place I went to didn't charge for borrowing that stuff) and pay for shooting practice that I need to have cash (which I almost never have more than $5 in my wallet) or check (a dinosaur I consider to be up there with VCR's and CD players). Maybe it's a petty complaint to some but it made the hour long drive a waste. And I've never been on the range (obviously), but from what I saw in the orientation video, they're pretty strict about what goes on on the range. Not that safety isn't important, but I don't want to feel like I'm going to get in trouble at any second. We actually saw a guy getting yelled at as we were walking in and were pretty turned off. I'll just stick to Red's Indoor Shooting Range for now. read more

I've been to Eagle Peak a half dozen times. The rifle range is first class with 25, 50, 100, 200 and 300 yards. Carpeted shooting benches with 6 sand bags per station. I've been to several ranges in the Austin area both indoor and outdoor. For various reasons the others earn 4 stars or less. Nobody's range is as 'reloader' friendly as Eagle Peak. All shooting benches have screens to catch brass. read more

I normally prefer Red's, because I like indoor ranges in general. I'm weird like that. But I also love shooting clays. I think the shotgun area here is great, and one of the best options around. A couple weeks ago I was going here to take my out of town friend shooting(because, when in Texas...) I don't own a shotgun, so when I made the trek out here from South Austin and my friend who was going to bring his shotguns backed out last minute, we decided to just rent a gun and buy some ammo, knowing full well that it was a grit your teeth kind of deal. The pistol rentals aren't terrible at $15. They do say you need to purchase ammo from them if you rent from them...at range prices. (hint: At least, the first box of ammo has to be bought from them). A box of .45s cost nearly $40. Ouch. Top that off with the $15 per person range fee(and the one time signup for my friend) and we came away at a pretty expensive little field trip... Anyway, the shotgun area is fantastic. The pistols are ok. A bit close together so tall people like myself often have casings going into the stall next to me. The hold times seem to be a little more often than I'd like, but I'm not sure if that's a fixed interval or just gauged by the range officer. Unlike other commenters, I'm pretty happy that they're strict on security. The ones who were watching that day were also good enough to answer all the questions my noobie shooter friend had that I couldn't answer. Going forward, this is still going to be my clay shooting destination, but for any pistols, it's too far and too expensive. read more

If you're looking for tea, crumpets, and the exchange of pleasantries this is not the place for you. The politics of the owners is apparent the second you walk in, which is fine by me but probably not for those of the progressive mindset, so be forewarned. They are curt and gruff, and will literally scream at you if you disregard the rules they set forth in the video they have you watch before setting off to shoot at their facility. "DO NOT approach the shooting benches during a cease fire!!" Just a decent overall place to shoot with a ton of pistol ranges -- some set at 7 yards, others set at 25 yards. Cheap to use without the associated hassles of the area indoor ranges. Count me as a fan of the overbearing safety precautions. There is a reason they haven't had a major accident. One star off for the large, older range officer asking me if I knew how to lock back the slide on my pistol, but oh well. read more

My husband and I had a wonderful time here! The facility and range were super clean and staff was extremely friendly! Some of these reviews on here are negative towards the staff but they were super friendly to us! Yes of course they are going to tight on there rules and I'm sure with a lot of people shooting at the range it can get a little crazy but we're dealing with guns here and safety is really important. With that said, I will for sure be returning and my husband thought it was a wonderful range as well. AND MAKE SURE TO BRING CASH, they don't take cards but there is an ATM in the facility. read more

Good experience. Weekday morning was not crowded - more rifle shooters than pistol, where I was. Range officer was a little gruff at first, but this is a big range, and I am sure when all lanes are occupied it is a job to keep everyone under control. Most of the range rules make sense to me. The only rule that interfered with my planned drill was the "no rapid fire" language, i.e., you should not fire faster than 1 shot per second. That could limit progress in some situations, but most people should take that much time at any range beyond a few yards. The targets they sell are reasonably priced. I did not price ammo. I do not like indoor ranges. Even the best ventilation systems still give you much more vapor exposure than the great outdoors, and usually much louder noise levels, too. I am pleased that this is the closest outdoor range to me. I'm going back. read more

Don't waste your time, unsafe, untrained personnel, rude and undisciplined staff. Being a US Army Vet who ran ranges as a range safety I've never seen a business or range run so incorrectly and unprofessionally. As a leader in the military I was taught and understood that every moment in life is a teaching moment & these idiots failed miserably read more

Really like this place, second time going today and liked it even more then the first time! Sam is always very helpful professional and funny! If I could give this place 6 stars I would just because of him! Best place to shoot shotguns in town. read more

My husband has been to multiple ranges around the Austin area and it seams as if the customer service has gotten worse with each one up until we stumbled upon Eagle Peak. The range was beautiful. both the gentlemen that were working were super helpful, respectful, and informative. I didn't even plan on shooting but they made my husband and I feel so welcomed I had a BLAST for my first range experience. We will definitely be spending most of our days off here from this point forward!! read more

Unbelievably terrible experience at Eagle Peak. An RO just called me a Mither fkn lisr in front of my kids and kicked us off the range. I have never been treated so disrespectful and I've been shooting at ranges for 30 years. I'm very serious in my belief that an overzealous hot-tempered name calling RO picking fights is a very bad idea at a sport shooting range. Please do not ever visit this range. read more

I have been clay trap shooting twice here. It's a long drive from wherever you are in Austin but worth the trip. They have shotgun rentals and a $50 package for 50 clays. You can probably save some money by bringing your own weapons and ammo, but I'm personally against guns in my home. Once you're on the range, it's not very crowded (clay range was empty). They give you a quick walk through and then let you run Target shooting at your own pace. There is no range safety and no tower controlling firers. I would recommend at least one person familiar with range and weapon safety because there isnt any supervision/guiding at this place. But if you like a hands off approach at your range, you'll love this place! read more
