Default Rifle Ranges in/around Calgary

I'll be moving to Calgary in the next month for school and I was wondering if anyone could suggest a good rifle range (with a 200 or 300 yard range) in or around the Calgary area.

Thanks in advance for all of your input!

Default Homestead range Kananaskis

The public range at the Homestead facility is ok.

The quality of your shoot out there will depend on who is out there with you at the time- yahoo's or responsible owners.

Weekdays are better than weekends.

Cheers!

the homestead range is a free public range and I would not recommend it, unless you want to take your life in your hands..it is unsupervised and you will see all manners of shooters there..
if you are looking for permanent membership, there are 3 in the vicinity..one range is in the south east of Calgary (Calgary & District Target shooters), the Rosebud is near the homestead range in K Country and Olds has a fine range as well, Mountainview..
link is here for all

Calgary & District Target Shooters Assn only has 50 & 100 yd rifle range, the OP was looking for 200-300 yds.
