FRT testing locations?

Building my first 300blk short barrel rifle and plan on using an FRT shooting subs suppressed. Anyone know of an outdoor or very unlikely a indoor range that allow “full auto” even though it’s not and it’s now legal to own and use FRT can’t seem to find anywhere that clearly states they allow it. I would assume it’s not allowed/recommended to shoot rapid fire at steel targets if I find an outdoor spot?

Shield wall in South Austin is FRT friendly

Call The Range on 35 south. I hear plenty auto rifles and pistols every time I go lately, and very few are actually automatic.

The Range does allow FRT firing, but will observe you at the start to make sure you can control it. I've shot there a couple of times with FRTs.

I have confirmed the range Austin does allow FRT’s 👍🏽 only down side is they are an hour 1/2 from me being up north.

Red's indoor allows FRT, although i can only confirm that for TX22 (22LR). Can't say about 300blk. Doesn't hurt to call and ask.

I bring my 300 blk with frt all the time to the range at Austin. No issues whatsoever

FWIW, Indoor ranges with full bullet capture are far more likely to allow FA-type shooting than outdoor ranges because morons are gonna moron.
