It is the police pistol range and is run by volunteers on weekends only. Usually only one bay is used of the facility and there are something like 10 shooting positions, maybe? I go there when I can and like it allot since it is near and outside. 50 yds max. No rifles over .22.
Can anyone who's been there tell me what the Eagle Creek pistol range is like? I assume it's outdoors. What do I need to bring, and what are the fees? Is it crowded? I'd love to hear about your experiences.
Thanks!
Beat me to it Crystalship, I couldn't find my link.
BTW: Love my XJ, getting a little beat up though at 240K miles.

Been shooting there the last couple months. So far they have the best price I've found around Indy, $6.50 for the whole day (6 hours to be exact)... Not sure what they mean $20 for weekdays. They are not open to public on weekdays...
sjstill is a member of this list and the range manager. Send him a PM for more information. The website is a volunteer effort, not connected to the city/county and is maintained in peoples spare time. Steve is a very nice person and will help answer your questions.
A couple of my recent experiences there, with pics:

Great, hospitable folks, and a good time.
Gee guys, if Eagle Creek is handy for you, why not check out Marion County Fish and Game? For about the cost of a ten visit pass you can shoot as many times as you want.
