1. I'm not seeing any outdoor ranges (in Illinois) in your link. As a matter of fact I only see one Illinois range. The indoor range in Glenwood. Glenwood happens to be located in Cook County where, last I heard, they had an AWB in place. That means any high cap [STRIKE]clips[/STRIKE] magazines you might have with your handgun would put you in violation. Now, there's rumors that the ban was struck down, that it was simply changed (not overturned), that homerule laws preempt the countywide ban (is Glenwood homerule?), etc. Hopefully someone in the know could weigh in. I don't care because I don't plan on going there and I wouldn't want to be a guinea pig either.
2. Go to Illinois (Cook County) to shoot????? Seriously? Did you hit your head?
Sidenote: I think that range/gunshop in Glenwood was robbed several years ago and the owner was murdered during the robbery. The new owner added several layers of security that included showing ID, getting buzzed in, and a ferocious huge dog. I know because I wanted to look around at his showroom and check out the range one day. He had his hand on his gun in a not-so-subtle manner the entire time I was in there. He observed me constantly through squinty eyes and barely grunted answers to my questions. I felt like a row of steel poppers seconds before the start buzzer. Never went back. That was years ago.
Correct the IL range is indoor so it's not exactly what the OP wants.
As for going to IL to shoot. No I have not lost my head. Our own melensdad was the one that provided the info for that range which I think he has gone to.
In terms of out door ranges near NWI.
Unless you got several millions to buy the old griffith gold course and convert it.

Nice, a bit too far for me though. I'm in Porter Co.
Somewhere in Lake, Porter or Laporte would be best.
