Went to the range Saturday and met someone there who was cool as hell. My guy had a war belt as he called it all decked out and done up in a way that made a lot of sense. I see no issue with this even a little bit and actually ended up grabbing the same belt under his recommendation for myself.
The fudds however were all talking shit about how it’s not needed at the range and it’s just more junk to lug around. Personally I think it’s a good idea to train how you fight. Hell if the guy had a plate carrier I wouldn’t have cared but the fuddzillas there probably would’ve had several simultaneous aneurisms.
Is going to the range in your kit appropriate for an outdoor range with lanes or is it best for harping in the woods where nobody can see you?

Cringe.

It depends what you're doing. If all you're doing is just standing/sitting and shooting at static targets, yeah full kit is a little bit of an odd choice unless you're wearing it for a specific reason.
That said, some gear isn't a bad idea. It sucks to stick magazines in your pocket. I don't go shooting if there's not a TQ and IFAK on my physical person. It sucks to jam things like pens, paper, tools, optics, etc into your pockets.
I have a basic shooting belt that I'll wear to a flat range if I'm not doing much dynamic stuff. Keeps things handy while also not just bringing extra stuff I don't need.
