How far away is your range from home?

[DialTone301]

Right out the back door for up to 50 yards. About a 1/4 mile for up to 1000 yards or so.

I usually go to Atterbury which is about an hour away. I haven't looked into ranges that are closer just because I like Atterbury.

I will be moving to Monrovia in the summer. Does any one know of a range that is close by?

How far do you drive to go shooting at your range?

~ 20 miles or 30 minutes driving time.

Why do you drive so far? Is there not one closer? Or do you just like your range a lot and don't care about the drive?

Closest outdoor range to my current house, and I really enjoy shooting at ACC as I'm typically the only person out there during the week.

If I had to drive more than 30 minutes one-way, I probably wouldn't shoot very much.

 

[Farslayer]

About an hour drive time.

live off stop 11 and combs and drive to New Palestine where i grew up at dads house...
reason being is he lives on a 5 acre lot thats 250ft wide and really long with a wooded lot backing to the property. so we shoot what we want, when we want, as long as we want. lol and dont get bothered
call county sheriff every time just to be curtious

MCF&G exactly 2.2 miles. I also pass it on the way home from work and stop once or twice a week to do a little plinking before dinner and always at least once on the weekends.

I drive about 30 minutes to Midwest in Elkhart, IN. I'm really looking forward to traveling to some of the other ranges this summer though.

 

[jayhawk]

I drive about 40 minutes to get to Roush. I have a few options that are closer, but I like Roush better.

Same. Since I can't exactly shoot out the back door, I feel like Roush is worth the drive. The range is in great shape, the RO is fun to deal with, and the atmosphere is generally pretty relaxed...plus I have an excuse to swing by 21st on the way to or from.

 

[wetidlerjr]

Twelve miles.

 

[j706]

20 yards from my front door.

Same with me.

 

[sartwell]

I shoot at Roush Lake and Blue Creek Conservation club. Both about 40 to 45 min. away from the house.

How far ? Don's - about 13 miles , Atterbury - about 42 miles

Why ? It is what it is if I want to shoot without going to jail

Closer ? I've heard rumors that one is being built in Beach Grove .

Do I like the drive ? Nope .

If I ever hit the lottery I'm going to try to open a range in Indy . I bet it would make back the start up cost in no time .

 

[inFALable]

One step from the back door or from inside the door if its raining!

 

[sepe]

I'd say about 45 minute drive but I like to pop off a few along the way. Reloading while driving can be a pain but I always try to get 3 or 4 magazines off before getting to the range.

 

[wp wrecks]

Outdoor at Willow Slough is 10 minutes away. Indoor at ABSI is about an hour away.

 

[N_K_1984]

I have two ranges that I frequent. One is 45 minutes away. The other is about an hour and a half.

 

[XtremeVel]

I go to (1) of (2) places. If I am rushed for time or just want to try a few rounds, I usually go to Ossian Conservation Club 10 miles from my driveway. Now If I want to make a day of it, I will go down to Roush which is 25 miles.

 

[Hiker1911]

Red Brush is about 8 miles from my home. I can get there in about 10 minutes from either home or work.

Red Brush is 20 mins. from the house, and sooo worth the drive!

 

[sloughfoot]

It looks like I am the distance award winner.

I travel all over the Midwest to shoot, including Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan and Ohio.

For local matches, It is Harlan, Brookston, Camp Atterbury, and Gnawbone.

Oak Ridge Tennessee puts on a good program too. I like taking their money too...

This is all for Highpower matches. The wife doesn't see much of me on the weekends......

My range is approximately 50 yards from my back door. Only problem is it is only about a 40 yard range. DNR has a range at Quakertown, and takes about 10 minutes to get to from home.
