Where do you shoot?

I've been hitting up Roush and more recently Churubusco. I haven't been into Freedom/H&H yet since the cold hasn't overridden my miserlyness and I prefer cheaper solutions, but I might give it a "shot" come January. I also haven't tried Roanoke yet, but plan to.

I have some family owned property I can shoot at just outside of Bluffton, but for such a large city we seem to be a bit limited range wise. I heard a rumor once that the New Haven police range out on Adams Center might open on weekends, but as far as I know that hasn't materialized. I've also heard there's a private range outside of Harlan you have to be invited to join, not sure if it's correct or not.

Any spots I'm not aware of?

I went in t freedom firearms and asked about pricing. $20 a day per person or $300 a year for family. I've been sticking with Roush until the cold weather too because I can't justify spending that much.

You should check out Busco (Ideal Fish and Wildlife). It's basically just an open area with a couple of huts for rifle, but it's generally pretty empty and you can rapid fire/move around/etc... It's only $25 a year too, and they have trap events.

Southwest conservation club off Bluffton Rd in Waynedale...

Also, just 8 miles south of the airport is the Ossian Conservation Club.

I've always shot on private property, but am interested in other local range options as well.

i usually shoot at mongo fish and wildlife preserve. its about a 25 min drive from where im at and it can get kinda crowded on the weekends with good weather but ive always been impressed by the willingness of fellow shooters out there to share the range and try and accomodate everyone as much as possible. and ive learned alot just from talking to some of the old timers that are there throughout the week.

 

[Audie Murphy]

Roush has been my main range. Maybe before things get cold,we should all get together for a group shoot.

You should check out Busco (Ideal Fish and Wildlife).

Ideal Fish & Game is always busy when I've tried to go.
When you're up that way, cruise a couple miles north and stop in to say "hi" at Tomlinson's.

We are members of the Izaak Walton league which is way out Coldwater road. They have trap/skeet, pistol, rifle and archery ranges. There is also hiking trails and a lake to fish in.

Roush & Freedom so far. Freedom is a bit pricey, but it's very close to home, indoors and oftentimes I do not have an hour and a half to devote just to the round-trip drive to Roush. No rapid fire/doule tap at Roush is a bit of a turn off to me, but not a dealbreaker when I have the time to go out there. Roush's rangemasters are neat guys as well.

 

[nemo97]

Oh yeah, I think it'd be fun having an outing at Roush.

Definitely, I've been meaning to stop in there.

I prefer the sixteen tap, then reload and tap some more.

I don't mind freedom, it is a bit pricey, but it's worth not having to drive my gas sucking V10 ram anywhere else.....lol!

Yeah, too much money going to all the new toys.
I know of a place you can shoot, will cost you some reloads.
