I just came across this, it lists public ranges in Indiana. www.state.in.us/dnr/fishwild/huntguide1/range.htm The only ranges I have been to on the list are the Jasper Pulaski and Winamac range. Both of these have 25, 50, 100, and 200 yard ranges along with a skeet range. Both are free and you can shoot up to .50 cal, but no full auto. |

Fall Creek Valley Conservation Club FCVCC Just south of Anderson, Indiana. |
Chesterton Indiana has a Range Masters I do not know the # off hand but it is not to far from lake county where I know must of you are from. Also its a state of the art range the same one the FBI uses cost 800,000 and sucks all the air out and replaces it every 80 seconds. you can shoot everything even 50 cal bmg rifle if you want. They also have some fully automatic HK mp5sd and a reguler machine gun you can rent I think the price is $75 includes hour range fee, 100 bullets, gun rentel,  I would like to add that a few days ago I went there to shoot and was not happy at all it was so fucking cold i could not even take off my coat. My thoughts are this I understand it is always putting new air into the room which is great but if you are going to spend 800,000 dollars you could put some heat on as well.

| Huntington County has a public range located at Roush Lake (FKA Huntington Resevoir). It's going through a 1.5 million dollar upgrade. I've stopped by there a couple of times to check the progress and I'm duly impressed with what I see. It is going to be state of the art, very modern. It's been awhile since I've been out there. I will get more information and post it here. Heck, for all I know it could be open already. I'll let you all know when I can. hug.gif |

I been to pulaski (DNR) quite a few times. I am usually there with my bud and his "tapcorized" AK47 and a 870 pump. Its a more relaxed range then the one we visited a while back (a recently remodeled DNR range) and it sucked. Wayyy too many constraints, albeit safer, but the lanes were cramped, people getting hit with brass, etc. |

How much are memberships due for Wildcat? I currently go to purdue so I could only use it like 8 months out of the year, i live in the SE corner of IN. Is there anyway to get like a student membership, like at the Flat Creek Range in W Lafayette? Flat Creek Range Edited for link |

Fort Wayne Rifle & Revolver Club. To join, one must be sponsored by a current member. All of our competitions are open to the public, and everyone is welcome.

Numerous matches including winter off-hand matches shot at 100yds. LARGE 5 bay pistol range with USPSA sanctioned matches. Indiana state match will be held here in June.

Waveland Gun Club. Its less than a half mile East of the entrance to Shades state park. It costs less than $40/yr or $3/visit. Range is open all year, daylight hours. The owners live on the property, they are very good people and give little supervision. Rifle, pistol, and skeet ranges. |
How long is the rifle range? |
| who all shoots out at wilbur wright around new castle...im there about every other weekend or so...for soem reason most people seem to be impressed by the power of my 7mm mag...i dont think its THAT powerful...if they think thats nasty, wait till i get a 50 ( at least i think you can shoot 50 out there) |
Sycamore Valley Gun Club--Freedom Range. The club is located 1/2 mile south of Freedom, IN in southern Owen County. Membership is a little steep by other standards because were about 5 years paid on a 15 year mortgage. (We had to buy land after a certain unnamed university official had us removed from the local campus. Same said official later fired a knightly  champion coach.) Dues are $200/yr for the foundation and $50/yr for the gun club. (Gun club dues are $100 the first year.) All club members must also be NRA members. We have a 50/100 yard rifle range, a 200 yard rifle range, and a 25 yard pistol range. We are in the process of building a trap range for informal shotgunning. (No leagues, etc.) Here's our website: www.svgc.org/ Edited for link. |

Young's Longshot in Woodruff, IN (1000 yards - no 50 BMG or MGs). They will supposedly allow 338 Lapua, 408 CheyTac and 416 Barrett... http://www.geocities.com/youngsrange/ Midwest Gun and Range in Elkhart, IN (indoor only, good variety of full-autos to rent, friendly staff) http://www.midwestgunandrange.com Wish there was a longer rifle range or one that allows 50 BMG closer to Elkhart |
Yeah...I've been there but I have not shot there yet. I talked with the owner, he is avery friendly guy. The 1K range is actually 970 yards and it's only one lane. It costs $10 an hour to shoot there. He said yearly dues are going to run $200, I thought that was kinda steep for what you get. |
Range Master Outfitters Incorporated (219) 921-0488 rangemasteroutfitters.com 1505 S Calumet Rd Chesterton, IN 46304 |

years ago there was a range near the college in bloomington indiana. now that I'm back to re-educate myself to get a better job-the range is closed down. Are there any ranges near bloomington that I can shoot at. The only range they say is in the area is in Freedom IN on 231 |
See my post about seven above this one. The Sycamore Valley Gun Club is the one that used to operate on I.U. ground. That's the one which had to move to Freedom. You'll never see another range in Bloomington/Monroe County. Those folks are too liberal to allow that to happen. Last I heard, all their police departments (city, county, and campus) have to go out of the county to practice and qualify. |
Seems as if they are out of business? I called that number and got a wrong number (and who said they are out of business), and the numbers listed on the website don't work...give fax tones after like 6 rings? Is this true? I really liked their range. |
"When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk." ~ Tuco
I am not positive on the address, however it is on US 231 S about 1mile past Romney, when traveling from Lafayette, there is a sign on the left I think it is the second road past Romney…Ok so I should check my wallet the address is 611E 1300S Romney, In 47981, and there Phone # is 765-538-2121. Also membership is $50 per year, and can be bought at Lafayette Guns And Gear Inc. www.lafayettegunsandgear.com Oh and the range has 1- 100yard range, 1 – 50 yard range, 2 – 25yard ranges (they should have the second one done now), 2 – trap houses, and a club house, as well as fishing ponds. |
I jsut wanted to clear something up. Eagle Creek allowed centerfire rifles for about 2 weeks last year (when TML posted this). That unfortunately did not last. It is pistol and shotgun calibers only now as it was before. It was the higher-up's (as in higher than Steve) decision to put an end to that. So please do not go out there thinking that centerfire rifles are still allowed there. Pistol cal carbines are A-okay though. |
Hours and prices have changed too. Saturday and Sunday 10AM to 4PM Single day 15.00 10 visit pass 65.00 |

I don't think anyone has mentioned Flat Creek Range 3217 Olympia Drive Lafayette, IN I've been there but haven't shot there yet. Its just off of Concord Road pretty close to 350 On the website it has the prices and directions. http://www.flatcreekrange.com/index.html |
Yes. They closed up shop - by in large because they had Bass Pro prices withous Bass Pro volume... Kingsbury F&W in LaPorte/Kingsford Hights is a nice covered outdoor range. Pistol, 25, 50, 75, 100yds (150?) max tho. No BMG. $4/day Shotgun & Archery too. |
There's a range in Martinsville? Please let me know! |
|
Near Terra Haute in Riley IN there is a great range (Riley Conservation Club) with $60/year membership and competitions every weekend including Wabash Valley Practical Pistol competitions. Sadly the range may be closing due to bank wanting to sell land, dunno yet. Really nice rules and ranges from 50-240 with not many of the usual restrictions. |
That's very sad if it happens. Riley is a great range. Still, the saddest day was when Sycamore Valley's magnificent range in Bloomington was demolished right out from under them by Myles Brand. |
