    Thanks! I'm in Munster, will check these out.

    Snapdragon posted a good link us NWI INGOers use.
    It's mostly just us chatting, so you don't need to read the whole thing. Jump in at the end and say hello.

    Sometimes, we'll talk about a M&S (Meet & Shoot) or M&E (Meet & Eat) there.
    When we get enough interest, it will be posted in the INGO EVENTS forum
    They are great ways to meet people, maybe try out a gun someone has that you might like.

    Range USA has memberships.
    You don't need to be a member to shoot there.
    But, if you shoot more than once a month, you'll save on the bottom membership option.
    And of course, better memberships get you better things.

    I just go with the bottom one.

    This is probably my best bet - I was spoiled in Florida with my local range that had a $10 unlimited range fee 5 minutes from my house!

    If they prohibit birdshot and buckshot what can you shoot in a shotgun?

    We have a winter pistol league at Blythe's in Valpo. We shoot on Tuesday nights starting at 5pm. Six shooters are on the line at once and we usually run three lines, so not everyone starts shooting at 5. We have a 5 and 6 week course of fire and run a drill after the entire COF is completed, before we start the next one. The only cost is the range fee, which is discounted for league shooters. Then we go out to dinner after shooting. Check it out if you want to shoot pistol.
