I am looking for a range in the midwest (Iowa/Wisconsin/Indiana/Illinois (unlikely)/Missouri) to shoot a BMG.

Any suggestions?

If Ohio isn't off the table, Thunder Valley Precision (Kimbolton, Ohio) goes out to a mile and allows 50BMG.  No tracers, steel core, API, or incendiary ammo.

Thunder Valley only allows 50BMG when
1) you’re a member
2) you qualify first

#2 is a bit odd, to me. They’ll let someone shoot Cheytac before 50BMG. Why? The CT can potentially fly even further if the shooter sucks/screws up.

*** Young’s in Indiana is the same way. 1000yd range. (They used to also require you be an NRA member. Don’t know if they still do)

The Aurora Sportsmen's Club allows 50BMG. That said, only shoot it at the main berm of which ever bay you are on.

The little side berms on the 200 and 600 yard ranges will not  stop 50BMG.
