DIRECTIONS FROM AUSTIN: ALL RIGHT TURNS
From the traffic light in Manor go approx. 5 miles and turn right onto VOELKER LANE. Voelker is between the State Picnic area and the Shell station. Go down Voelker approx. 0.8 miles and turn right onto BALLERSTEDT RD. Ballerstedt dead-ends at a stop sign at LITTIG RD. Turn right onto Littig and go about 0.4 mile to the AUSTIN RIFLE CLUB RANGE. It is the first driveway you can turn right. The gate to the Education Building is the second driveway you can turn right, about 1000 feet farther uphill.
ALTERNATE ROUTE--SHORTER: Go east 3.4 miles from Manor and turn right onto Kimbro Avenue ( Old Hwy 20 ). Where Kimbro curves to the right take Littig Rd. to the left and cross the railroad tracks. Follow the tracks east on Littig for 2.4 miles (you will cross the tracks again) to the Club.
The gate is open during scheduled activities such as matches, classes, and Orientation. (Most Sundays and some Saturdays). At other times the gate should remain locked. The range is closed to ALL shooting from 8:00 AM to NOON on the FIRST SATURDAY of each month for maintenance. You are encouraged to come out and put some sweat equity into the club. Bring work gloves, weed eater, saw, hammer, screw gun, etc. We mow, clean up, re-build target frames, and often we have special projects. Check the club calendar in the newsletter or at www.austinrifleclub.org for exceptions.
There are restrooms, but no vending machines, no store, no water fountain, or other services. We suggest that you bring something to drink, especially in hot weather. EYE AND EAR PROTECTION IS MANDANTORY. THE RANGE IS IN A FLOOD PLAIN and ACCESS MAY BE BLOCKED BY HEAVY RAINS AND FLOODING. Do not enter the range if there has been heavy rain, especially in Pflugerville or Manor. Bring rubber boots in wet weather. The range can get muddy.
