NEWS RELEASE

RANGE MAKES MINOR AMENDMENT TO 10-K

FORT WORTH, TEXAS, APRIL 8, 2004...RANGE RESOURCES CORPORATION (NYSE: RRC) today filed a Form 10-K/A with the Securities and Exchange Commission amending its 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 which was filed on March 3, 2004. The amendment corrected certain computational errors included in the Standardized Measure footnote to the 2003 financial statements. As a result of the corrections, the Standardized Measure of the Company’s reserves at December 31, 2003 increased approximately $9 million to just over $1 billion. Certain changes were also made to the Changes in Standardized Measure table to reflect these corrections. The revisions had no impact on the previously disclosed pretax present value or proved reserve quantities which totaled $1.4 billion and 685 Bcfe as of December 31, 2003, respectively.

Commenting, John H. Pinkerton, the Company’s President, said “Given the market’s sensitivity to anything involving proved reserves, we chose to amend our 10-K despite the revisions being immaterial on an overall basis. As noted above, there has been no change in our proved reserves or their pretax present value, both of which were reported in our news release of January 26, 2004. Our operations are proceeding well. On a preliminary basis, it appears production for the first quarter will exceed our previous guidance.”

The amended 10-K/A can be found on the Company’s website at www.rangeresources.com and on the SEC’s Edgar system.
