Not to hijack, but am I the only one that completely effin' despises indoor ranges?

I'm the same way. I've been to 3 different indoor places around here, and one down in south Alabama. The one down there is actually really nice, well lit, and the shooting lanes are really wide with full walls dividing you from the next person. It helps baffle the sound if someone is in there with a hand cannon. I usually pick a spot at the far end next to the wall.

And there is actually a nice indoor range about a mile from my house, but due to how proud they are of it and the rates they charge per hour, I'd rather drive 35-40 minutes to a nice outdoor range and not feel rushed to shoot since it is cheaper than the hourly rate at the indoor place, and it is a day rate. So pay for one hour, or pay less than for one hour and shoot all day out in the open. Plus they have several different ranges to use. Steel, steel falling plates, and even a thrower in a field for shooting clay. Can't do any of that indoors firing at paper.
