50 .40 rounds cost me $24 at Top Gun and only about $13 at Memorial while 50 9mm rounds cost me $21 at Top Gun and only about $11 at Memorial.

Times have changed in just two months. Went to Top Gun yesterday to shot my new PT145 PRO and they were completely out of .45 target ammo; the only had some SD rounds.

Went to Memorial for the first time and got the last box of target ammo they had in .45 (Monarch 50 RD). The box of Monarch was $26.99. Also got a box of 9MM target for my 92FS and it was $24.99. It's pretty bad when the ranges are out of ammo for you to shoot. It looked like both ranges had most ammo except for .45.

Found the people at Memorial to be overall more friendly than at Top Gun and acted like they appreciate your business and wanted your future business.

I looked at both Memorial's and Top Gun's web sites today and they both charge $15.00 per hour with no extra charge for additional guns. I think Memorial has 10 lanes vs. Top Gun's 15. I never have figured out why places would charge for extra guns other than to rip people off. If you have a lane for an hour what difference does it make whether you put "x" amount of rounds down range from one gun or several?

You can bring your own to Top Gun but they are particular on what type of ammo you shot. Below are their range rules:
