...No enterprise is more likely to succeed than one concealed from the enemy until it is ripe for execution...
If you want the prime bush, follow the Dawg...
-Ridgedale Rifle Range (abbotsford)
-Abby Fish and Game (Abbotsford)
-Mission Range
-Chilliwack Fish and Game
Mission or Ridgedale would probably be the closest for you. The traffic at the Port Mann bridge can best be described as ridiculous. Poco would be out of the equation for me on account of this. Mission is busier than Ridgedale from what I am told, but has better facilites (more $$$$).
The Rocky Mountains is the Marrow of the World"Ain't this somethin'? I told my pap and mam I was going to be a mountain man; acted like they was gut-shot. "Make your life go here, son. Here's where the people is. Them mountains is for Indians and wild men." "Mother Gue", I says "the Rocky Mountains is the marrow of the world," and by God, I was right. Keep your nose in the wind and your eye along the skyline."
Check that Noahdawg it's west of town and you need to be a member of the club to get a key to get in (although i don't think it's always locked). I believe the membership is around 70 bucks a year now. They are trying to raise funds to finish the 1000 yard range down the blackwater.
Mission busy? When? The times I've gone, there have been 1-2 others. Once there was a whole 4 other people.

Wait till next weekend when they start opening the 300 yard range to the pubic for the pre-hunting season sight in. It will be packed.
Yeah, it's gonna suck when sight-in season hits... still, I don't think it'll be like the gong show that is PoCo on the weekends. If one isn't there by 10am, you won't be able to get a spot (out of, what, 18?) until someone leaves, and there are generally people waiting in front/after you. I've only been up there once on a Saturday and I'll never go back. The RO's tell me lots of "less experienced" shooters really make things a mess up there..
But isn't this a good thing....we (collectively) all need practice but if I have to wait a little so that a "less experienced" shooter can get better, then so be it. It is the less experienced that are probably most responcible(yes I am guessing) for the bad PR we as firearm owners get.
We all learn by doing.
