There are no Federal Ranges in my state and only two State run ranges that I am aware of.

As to Federal gun ranges - I lived out West for years and in two locales it was P.R. money that we applied for that enabled us to build our ranges, including machines, a large club house, hunter-ed supplies, etc.
