I drive to Winamac FWA. Really nice range. No fees. Covered. 25yard to 200 yard ranges. Worth the drive for me.

I've never been there before but the Michigan City Rifle and Pistol Club seems to have a decent following. It's just east of the I-94/US20-US 35 exchange in LaPorte.

I second the above. The Winamac FWA range is a diamond in the rough. 25,50,100,200 yard. benches w/ overhead cover. Bathrooms as well. just a nice well kept range. Never been disappointed. Its my "happy Place". : )

Probably the best response here is: what type of "outdoor shooting" are you looking for in NWI?

Trap/Skeet, Pistol (paper/steel target or USPSA/IDPA style), or Rifle?
Each of those is likely to send you to a different range...

Good point. Rifle

Thank you

Maybe starting a thread on a meet and shoot there for the Saturday of Labor Day weekend. Keep an eye out in the NWI thread and eventually in the events thread

Winamac is best but it's a hike. Kingsbury and Willow Slough are good too and closer.

Is there a cost to shoot at Kingsbury or Willow Slough? I had heard there was?

I go to jasper pulaski. Usually not to busy. Make sure to check the hours before you go.

Hammond PD range is probably the best.

Checked the DNR site. Yes, there is a fee to shoot at both Kingsbury and WS. Winamac is still free.
