In my previous research I thought Hillside Shooting Sports allowed guests to shoot up to 200 yards and if you took a shooting test they would let you shoot longer distances. Only see a 200 yard limit advertised now but you might inquire.
Your helpful spirit is very much appreciated and makes it very inviting to try something new.We don't do a traditional class or training session. It's all "club" matches, and no cash and prizes to be won, so its all "practice" in a way.
Come on out to a midrange match (once a month, starting in March) before a long range, and see what it's all about. You can come watch if you want (email Shawn on the cihprs website), or better yet, sign up and shoot. Shooting might be the worst spectator sport there is. Bring a rifle, watch someone else shoot first, then jump in. As long as you're safe, its all good. No reason to sit on the sidelines.
Plenty of us are more than happy to help get you on paper. It's far easier than you'd think (especially for a midrange match) to get squared away and centered up within a few shots.
Let me know if you've got any more questions, I'm happy to help out.
Happy to do it. I know for me, there was some intimidation and trepidation before I started shooting these matches. You'd be hard-pressed to find a more helpful group who are happy to tell you EXACTLY how they're beating you so hopefully you can beat them next match (wind calls, reloading recipes, equipment etc).Your helpful spirit is very much appreciated and makes it very inviting to try something new.
Thank you.
Nice to meet you man, I put this together a year or so ago and between moves etc (I lived in CO for work) I haven’t been able to really get out there.

Bass n Bucks up by WabashDoes anyone know of some good ranges somewhat close to Central Indy to shoot at distances greater than 200 yards? Ideally out to 1000yards
I’m in the same boat...picking up some good information as well!Bass n Bucks looks like what I am wanting as far as simply getting some practice at longer ranges without committing to a membership yet. Thanks!
I am definitely wanting to get into shooting matches once I get some more experience under my belt so this is great info to hear! Do I need to be a part of the club to shoot matches?
