    Hello all! I've been browsing this site for a little while and really enjoy it. Just signed up as a member. I've enjoyed hunting & shooting since I was about 8, and enjoy it just as much today. I shoot handguns, rifles and clays, reload my own pistol ammo. I shoot at Kingsbury and on some private land with a really nice range. Have a great day! :patriot:

    Welcome to the group! I'm new here (and in Valpo). I've heard about Kingsbury but never been. How is it?

    I just drove down to Jasper Pulaski last weekend after a round of trap at Oak Wood Gun Club, seemed like a good place to shoot.

    The Indiana DNR runs a very nice public outdoor rifle, pistol and shotgun range. It is located near Laporte IN. Its daily fee is 4.00 dollars, that is four dollars to shoot all day.

    The address is 5344 S. Hupp rd, Laporte IN 46350 Phone: 219.393.1128

    It has the following covered shooting positions:

    18 Pistol 10-15-15m
    10 built in benches for Rifle at 50m
    5 built in benches at 100m
    4 trap ranges with manual throwers

    Target holders are provided. It has running water in the restrooms and ample parking. The range officer was strict yet very helpful.

    Nice! One of the biggest attractions of Jasper Pulaski is the 225m range. I'm not really sure where else you can find one that long in Indiana. Not that $4 is a deal breaker but I'm pretty sure it's free. The only thing to remember is they are closed Mondays and Tuesdays, but open year round.
