Default Gun and or Skeet Trap Range near North Austin

I have googled and come up with one, just wondering where the shooters go? I have a range of guns and calibers that I would love to shoot once there..from handguns to rifles, and enjoy a good day at the skeet range as well...Is there a location where all can be done in the same day?

Thanks for the input.

It's called Eagle Peak Shooting Range. I don't know if they have skeet shooting there however. Here's a link to their site: Eagle Peak Shooting Range - "+nowtitle+" (http://www.eaglepeakshootingrange.com/epsr.htm - broken link)

OK, thanks guys, that was the one I pulled up on the web. Just wanted to see if there was another one I was missing..That one looks nice, and compared to the range prices I have been paying in Charlotte, it is cheap! That said, I miss the good ole days of hunting and shooting on my own land, no additional fees...LOL...

If I may hijack, would anyone have a favorite gunsmith/dealer in the north Austin area? I have a top-break H&R revolver that hasn't fired a round in about 40 years...would like to get it checked out. Thx.

Capital Clays east on 290 is very nice. More East than North, but they have skeet, trap, and sporting clays.
