I have been using Lexington gun range...it's hit and miss with safety. Get there early, like sun up, and one usually has the range to themselves.
Been down there a few times lately.
Depending on the crowd if I stayed or not.
Way back in the day I used to go down there a lot.
Wasn't unusual to have the place to myself all day.
These day it can be down right unsafe.
You might want to check out Tbird range.
Real nice place about 15 miles north of Lex.
Oh and by the way welcome to OSA.

T-bird range is on the agenda. It is about the same distance as Lexington, and it seems to be a good place from the other post I have looked at.
That's the only way to do it, get there early. I'm an early riser anyway so it helps.
To go through Norman:
Take I35-S towards Norman
Exit Highway 9 (Exit 108A), head E
At Classen/US-77, head S
At Slaughterville Rd, head E
At 180th St, head S
You will pass Duffy Rd about a mile before the range.
The range will be on your right.
You of need to be in possession of a valid hunting license to have a firearm on the WMA. The shop at 180th and Slaughterville Rd sells hunting licenses.
The ticket for not having one is somewhere around $200, and the ODWC rangers do show up and check from time to time.
To go through Purcell:
Take I35-S towards Norman
Take exit 95 on the left toward US-77/Purcell/Lexington
Merge onto N Green Ave
Turn left at OK-39 E/W Washington St
Continue to follow OK-39 E
Turn N on 180th St
The range will be on your left juuuuuust after you pass York St (the sign for York should be on your right)
If you go on Google Maps you can see the range from the Satellite view. Just search for "dahlgren lake", then flip over to Satellite view and head East to 180th St.
You will have crappy cell reception so do not expect to be chatty on the phone.
