one day a month (the last sunday) we have a match thats open to the public its a precision rifle match (sign up on pratiscore)... well at least we'll have a match after the corona craps over!
Do I need to be a part of the club to shoot matches?
all red brush matches are open to the public! BUT the prc match starts at 9 am on sunday mornings (cst) and lasts till the afternoon, there wont be a match in may, but I fully expect all matches to resume in june (bowling pin, steel challenge, idpa, prc)
I don't shoot prc, but if your interested, I can point you where to go for more info! I do know the match director, hell of a guy!!!, has offered to let me shoot his guns in the match, teach me how to shoot precision rifle, and more!

Does 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 on the board of CIHPRS. Happy to answer any questions and help you get started. We resumed matches this past weekend. Everything ran smoothly Saturday and Sunday both. A few extra steps for entry onto base due to the pandemic, but nothing major at all.
We usually run matches 2 weekends each month...3x1000 yards and a 50 round across the course on Saturday, Palma match on Sunday (800, 900, 1000 yards) for one weekend, or a midrange (300, 500, 600, 600, 600 yards) on Saturday, and a 3x1000 on Sunday for the other.
Electronic targets require the round to be supersonic to register on the targets, so you have to be moving to make 1000 yards with a .223 or .308. Any match bullet should be fine for midrange (600 yards and in).

Any questions, feel free to let me know.
Thanks for this info. Seems like if would want to eventually start at midrange. It looks like there are multiple classes with caliber restrictions. I have a Tikka in 6.5 Creedmoor so not sure what class would be best for me if any.
You'd be in F-open by NRA rules, but we do have a class we created at CIHPRS to let folks with "normal" rifles (not purpose build F-class rigs) compete against each other. We're calling it F-Practical. Basically it just has to be shot from a "normal" tactical bipod and rear squeeze bag. No moon lander bipods, $1000 mechanical front rests, and no bunny ear rear bags that let the rifle track perfectly rearward. It's a lot of fun.
That sounds excellent! Once I get setup I think I will start showing up to these. What types of ranges does F-Practical shoot at? Never been to a shooting competition like this so I am curious how they work.
Atturbury is only about 20 minutes from me so this is convenient too.
They go out to 1000. Best range in the state. I miss it dearly.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.
I’m new to long range precision shooting all together. May sound dumb, do you guys offer a class or course? Would love to get more involved and get into competition shooting.I'm on the board of CIHPRS. Happy to answer any questions and help you get started. We resumed matches this past weekend.

Just joined as life member.
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.I’m new to long range precision shooting all together.
