Their 50rd boxes of 9mm Federal 115gr Range/Target ammo was a buck more than Gat as well. I didn't check pricing on anything else. The people there were cool, though. Again, compared to Gat, which is the only other range I've been to...hence the limited comparison, they don't have as many spots on the range (12 vs Gat's 24). They do, however, have a separate, 12 position rifle range at the same facility and they are less restrictive on caliber and ammo type. Gat restricts you to mostly .22, if I remember correctly, but On-Target allows .223, 5.56, and a few others (including shotgun slugs and shot.
Overall, On-Target is worth checking out. I'd def go back there again.

Yeah me and a few buds were there about a week ago, I mostly shoot at Maxon so the second I saw the indoor 50 yard range i bought a membership! Place is sick and a thousand times better then Maxon. Ive never shot at Gats range so i can't compare it but I have got a few firearms from them. Shame On Target won't let me shoot my .50 there
Its cool tho, if you ever see a younger dude with a FN 17s there its probably me so swing over and say whats up some time! I'm there at least once every 2 weeks with a bunch of my buddies causing havoc
