That one is fine. You probably want a slice of const(size_t):

import std.range;

void main()
{
     assert(!isRandomAccessRange!(const(size_t[])));
     assert( isRandomAccessRange!(const(size_t)[])); // <--
}

Explanation:

const(size_t)[] means the elements of the array can't be modified, but
the array itself can (necessary to implement popFront, popBack, etc.).

const(size_t[]) means the array itself can't be modified, so popFront,
popBack are invalid. So it cannot be a range.
