Hillsdale Range and Training Facility in Paola, Kansas

“Clean range, low prices, affordable targets on site for purchase, no ammo or firearms to purchase, hours do depend on the weather. Like other reviews have mentioned, all the range masters are older/retired age men. They are sort of grumpy, they all have their own rules they enforce, however they are understanding and helpful at the same time. They have lots of lanes. First come first serve basis, pretty much help…”

“Hillsdale range is awesome, I come here to sight my rifle right before hunting. They also have a pistol range right next to it.”

“Not a bad range but the range masters are all old guys that are cringe and hover, just be aware, but they are nice about it. But prefer places like center fire with a little more privacy. EDIT, I lowered my original review stars because I remembered one of the old guys yelled at me for slightly walking on the grass, and wanted me to go back and walk "proper" really bad personalities here.”

“The entire staff was incredibly helpful getting my gun sighted in before deer season. These people really care about sharing their passion. You might need to bring cash, it was $15 entry. I don’t even think he charged me for my target this time.”

“Not a bad place to go, only problem I had was the older guy working there. Took my daughter to work with her on proper gun etiquette and safety, old guy was right there hovering the whole time. I got in trouble for not following a couple rules I was never told about or weren't even posted. The other older guy who is a bit bigger was kind of a jerk too. I was standing on the yellow line, not behind it, when someone…”

“I love this range. It's clean and well kept. The range masters are all just awesome and friendly. They are also a wealth of knowledge and very helpful. It's a great place for the advanced and beginning shooters. Fantastic place for a fun day of shooting.”

“Hours don't reflect what's posted. Need to be an hour early or total waste of a drive. Need to be properly displayed online and at the range. Very disappointed. Do better it's not that hard.”

“Brandon was a great help with the clay disc targeting. Amazing person to talk to and get help from. The old man at the pistol range however is an absolute jerk and doesn't need to be behind someone being an ass to someone learning a firearm. Doesn't give a bit of space to my girlfriend and stood right behind her and told her she is an unskilled shooter and needs to leave. Will not be coming back to the pistol range.”
