I drive from Avon to Atterbury, that's over an hour. I would like to go to a range like Danville, but I work second shift. Most of the private ranges make you go to a meeting at night before you can join. I manage the second shift at my plant, so I can't go. I don't like driving that far, but it beats not being able to shoot on the occasional Saturday I have off.
Bigum,you live on the east side? One of my best friends is good buddies with the owner of Strictly. Doesen't get me good deals on guns,though.
Bigum, best thing to do is call a realtor. There is 11 acres that i know of close to the river around the ford road area that is for sale. They are asking a high price for it but it is good hunting/shooting land. When I see the owner again I'll see if it's still for sale.
Living here in the People's Republic of Bloomington, all the ranges are at least an hour away. Sad, but true.
