Of the six ranges I've been to in the NE-SE San Antonio area it's only possible at one. Lone Star has tactical bays to rent. Another one says don't do this stuff but I'm frequently the only one there (nice to be retired and go early on a weekday), the handgun range is remote from the office, and there are no RSOs so I can get away with it. All the others, no draw, no rapid, no this, no that. One range I went to had a 2'x3' box painted on the concrete that you had to stay within and weapon had to remain pointed downrange at ALL times. I was holding it near appendix and coming up to fire and got chewed out.

Oh, and one private range that I can do anything at but can't always get.
Come on down to Houston and visit the Brazos River Sportsman's Club. Leigh John (the range owner) has several bays around the property to allow for private shooting areas. One of them has a 270-degree radius of berms around it.

No, I don't have any stake in the place, but I do a lot of qualifications there for LTC courses. I find the whole crew there (Leigh John, Paul, and others whose names escape me right now) to be great folks who run a great range way out on the west side of town.
