Range suggestions in Nor Cal for CCW draw practice?

[eggs]

I'm in Napa Valley and looking for a place I can practice that allows me to draw from a concealed position. Ideally it would also have a rifle range (100 yards +) that allows prone position. I'm willing to drive an hour or so for the right place. Any suggestions? Thanks to all!!

Only public ranges I know of close to Sac are,

"The Gun Range" but it's only ~20 yards and only after RO's approval. Don't think they'll let ya do prone tho.
OR
If you are a member of Sac Valley then you can reserve a bay with at least 1 other person (safety reasons) but you're still limited to ~20 yards.

My question is why not practice drawing from concealment at home, then just shooting at a range from a low ready? Most ranges have a 1 or 2 sec delay between shots so you wouldn't be practicing, "El Presidente" or "Mozambique" drills anyway.

Just my $0.02

if you want to make the drive go to oroville, public free range no range officer. shoot what and how you want. there are tables and bathrooms there. can shoot out to 500 yrds

Gun range in North highlands let's you draw from holster with a valid ccw, but it's indoor 25yds. If you know a voting member at sac valley, they can reserve one of the action pistol bays and you can practice draw. Longer bays are out to 50 yds and you can go prone.

Can I buy a membership at the Sac club and just do it that way or do you need to get sponsored or something of the sort?

I don;t even know where Oroville is! I'll have to look it up!

And up to 20-25 yards is just fine for pistol, but I's prefer outdoors. At this point, I don't want to be too picky!

Find a range that does IDPA, USPSA, steel, etc., matches/shoots. This will increase your "gun fighter" skills.

At home buy yourself a shot timer....this will work well:

Then get one of these books and put in the work:

As the first reply said, "The Gun Range" at Watt & 80 in Sacramento / North Highlands, will allow you to draw from a holster AND do rapid fire. I believe you do have to show them your valid CCW in order to draw & fire from a holster.

They are an indoor range, so it's only about 20-30 yards and I do not think they'll let you do prone. They do allow you to shoot rifles.
