Belton

Located at the Bell County Expo Center, Exit 292 on Interstate 35 (west side), just south of Belton. Belton is immediately south of Temple and lies 60 miles north of Austin and 45 miles south of Waco. Look for a big, domed building on a hill on the west side of the highway with a large lighted marquee.

If you are coming from Houston, take US 290 west out of Houston, pick up state highway 36 in Brenham, follow 36 all the way to IH 35. You notice that the road also becomes US 190 at Rogers. Turn left (south) when you reach IH 35 and proceed to exit 292.

Ample free parking available in front of and on the right side of the building.

Ammunition sales outside the building in the parking lot.

Loading for dealers only on Friday set up day (12 noon till 8 PM): Drive to your tables! Check in first and then drive in slowly through the large overhead doors.

Hotel: Super 8 in Temple, 4 miles north on the Interstate 35, take Midway exit, 254 778-0962. Ask for the gun show rate. Has a pretty fair Mexican restaurant adjacent for breakfast taquitos and supper.
