Illinois is a fairly large area Holmes.
Exactly what part of that large state would you be referring to? |

Free is preferable. So, where's everyone shooting? Moderators, feel free to move this where necessary. I looked and didn't see a sufficient spot. Thanks. IL hometown forum |

Sorry for the late reply, I'm in the western suburbs of Chicago. Aka, Elgin. Tired of paying $24 range fees and being limited by silly rules. Had a decent farm I was shooting at in Marengo but that's held up right now. Need something more reliable.
In a perfect world, I'd love to get a piece of land and build up my own range. Already have plenty of steel and 18" IPSC targets/stands. |

I've been to Willow Slough. Nice place. 10-100yds. Covered but not indoors. They have ammo, targets and other essentials. Approx $7 per hour per person I think. Jasper Pulaski range is another I've been too. All outdoors, free, 1 porta potty and ranges from 25-200yds. Shotgun area as well. |
