New Shooting Range: Camp Atterbury


This post is mostly for my fellow Hoosiers but if you like to travel to shoots or just like to learn about new clubs then read on. Camp Atterbury is a National Guard training and mobilization camp located in Edinburgh, Indiana. The camp has recently opened up a brand new shooting facility. This is one of the nicest ranges I have been to; although I haven’t been to too many ranges I am still confident in saying that this is one of the nicest around. The new range was built by the Department of Natural Resources and features a 66 station rifle and pistol range and 4 combination trap and skeet ranges.


At the shotgun range you can shoot skeet, international skeet, trap, doubles trap, and wobble trap. The shotgun range also holds NSSA and ATA registered shoots and is sanctioned by USA Shooting. The range recently held an NSSA registered skeet shoot over Labor Day weekend. The shoot consisted of 100 12ga, 20ga, 28ga, and 410. 12 and 20 were shot on Sunday and 28 and 410 were shot on Monday. The turnout for the shot was not the greatest but seeing as it was the first registered shoot for the club I am sure it will get better. Camp Atterbury is the only public range in the state of Indiana that shoots international skeet. The range also will be holding leagues throughout the year for shooters of all ages. The range also has a pro shop that offers rental guns, guns for sale, and many other necessities for shooters. The cost to shoot is reasonable $5 per round and I believe that you can buy a membership that drops the price to $2.50 a round.


The rifle and pistol range offers yardages from 7 to 100 yards. It is completely concrete and has benches for the rifle range and has stands with dividers between stations for the pistol yardages. The range officer on duty declares a 10 minute ceasefire every 20 minutes so shooters can check their targets and post new ones. It cost $1 per hour to shoot and there is a minimum of 2 hours. Or you can opt for the $80 one year membership and you can shoot anytime for free. The rifle and pistol range also has a pro shop where you can buy ammo, targets, Camp Atterbury apparel, and other shooting necessities.

shot the skeet range for the first time today. shot with a nice group of guys - some rank beginners, some much more experienced. Told the range manager the low house was 2 feet low and asked to have the trap elevated. Informed the birds were fine - no change. I've probably seen 100,000 skeet targets . Disappointed the mananager wouldn't respond to a simple request. otherwise, nice facility.

It's interesting to see just how permeant virtual memory has become in our lives. It's like everytime I turn my head, I see something with a card slot or USB port, haha. I guess it makes sense though, considering how inexpensive memory has become lately...

Ahhh... I shouldn't be complaining. I can't make it through a day without my R4 / R4i!
