Wilbur Wright Range

[SSGSAD]

Was @ W. W. range this morning, and talked to Ken, the DNR guy, a real nice guy, and he told me they are going to put a roof on the 25 yd line this spring / summer, and may clean out the shotgun range, and open up the 100 yd range again.

 

[Bastispah]

im there all the time, would like to see a 100 yd range!!

 

[henktermaat]

So WW is open in the winter? I am itching to shoot...

 

[Zephri]

Long as the range stays free I'd love to see a 100yd range there.

They should be open all winter.

Yes, they are closed, on Mon., & Tue., but open on Mon. Holidays....short hours during winter, long hours during spring / summer...according to Ken, it will always be FREE .....

Short hours?
My understanding is that it is 8:00 am to 5:00 pm year around.

If they bring back the 100 yards, then we'll probably lose the shotgun area. That's a tough one, I use the shotgun more than the rifle, and wish the rifle was a 200 yrd.

I usually look past clubs... I like the public ranges. I have never tried WW but I'm going to one of these days.

WW is well worth the drive from Indy...the hour it takes to get there helps build up the excitement of throwing lead at those pesky zombies. I keep asking myself..."Are we there yet?"

 

[TRLREDY]

Been there several times. Nice little range and well worth the drive as stated above. Like the fact there aren't any range nazis like at Atterbury. Be safe and you're GTG.

I think that your right. I have been out there around 3pm and it has never been closed.

 

[TheLoneRaider]

I cant wait for the 100 yard to open up.

 

[BloodEclipse]

I cant wait for the 100 yard to open up.

I too will use the 100 yard range, but I hate to see the shotgun range close. I wonder if we could get them to put a shotgun range close by?

 

[BloodEclipse]

double tap

double tap

I say that to my wife sometimes.

 

[dustjunky2000]

Hmm... Get a 100 yd rifle rang and lose the shotgun range? Man that's a tough one. Mixed feeling about this. While extending the rifle range would be AWESOME, I really like to shoot my shotgun. Either way, it's been too long since I've been out there! I can't wait to go there with some fellow INGOers!

 

[henktermaat]

Here's a question: Can I shoot an old DVD player I've been saving for that very thing? I'd clean it all up when done

(I wish I had my own land)
