Don't know the distances, but there's a range just above Stockton

Pascagoula Shooting Club has a 1000 yard range but you have to shoot a qualifying match to have access to it
Pascagoula Shooting Club
There's a place in south Mobile county (or was a few years ago) but I can't remember the name of it

Styx River for very short range rifle/pistol, but be prepared to deal with too many riffraff lowlifes from Mobile and Pensacola.
Each time I went there had to deal with clueless dumb asses violating the Golden Rules and Cold Range safety protocol.
Their clay shooting facilities are very good and well frequented.
Three Brothers Arms has their range in Stapleton, AL, it is a public range and it goes to 300 not 500 yards for rifle.
I've shot there a few times it is a half decent range.
But each time I've had to deal with clueless dumb asses violating the Golden Rules and Cold Range safety protocol.
Gunport aka First Class Arms Training in Coden, AL, a private training facility open to the public, it may be closed at any time if they've training going on.
It has some half decent facilities and goes out to just over 400 yards for rifle on the regular rifle range.
Seems to have much fewer dumb asses without a clue, maybe due to their small initial fee to join and making you watch a safety video before shooting there your first time.
This is where I usually do my transfers, sighting in and plinking.
Pascagoula Gun Club in Pacagoula, MS, this is the place if you want a real 1000 yard rifle range.
It is also a private members only range that you'd have to join.
I've been too much of a cheapskate to join.
CMP Talladega Marksmanship Park in Talladega, AL.
WOW! World Class Range and Facilities.
Electronic targets and scoring, no walking downrange to check targets.
The rifle range goes out to 600 yards and is incredible.
For me this is at least a two day trip with nights at a local hotel, it a shooting vacation.
Be sure to check their schedule to avoid competitions and classes.Ragnar Benson:

Tom, we really enjoyed hearing you two tonight at Post 44. We have heard you before at the Elks Club, but you were in particularly good voice tonight. That was as fine a rendition of "You Were...
