Nice outdoor ranges in Knoxville?

[Guest SonOfaGun]

I'll be moving to the Powell area in a few months. Are there any nice outdoor ranges within, say a 20 mile radius of Powell? Looking for 100 yard + targeting. If you include range fees, that would be appreciated.

Thank you.

You've got two options. One is Norris, it will run you thirty bucks a year and it has 100 yard rifle area. I've been there and it is nice and relaxed.

The other option is John Sevier on Rifle Range. I don't know what the fees are there but it isn't bad. I think you might have to shoot sitting down.

If you're willing to drive a bit farther you can try ORSA. Never been there but I've heard tell that it is the finest private range this side of the Mississippi. I think you find more info at Oak Ridge High Power Rifle ORSA

+1 to what Mosinon said.

The Norris range also goes out to about 220-250 yards. No RSO's

John Sevier range in Knoxville is $5.50/2 hours and is sit down only. 100 yards max.

ORSA is a mighty fine range. 1000 yards.

Welcome to Powell. I can only agree with what has already been posted. Norris is where I usually go.
