True Variety
The Walter Cline Range is built on variety. From covered Firing Lines to Trap & Skeet, Archery, Tomahawk Throwing, Bank after Bank of Silhouettes, and a grueling course of woods walks, you can do it all with the NMLRA.
Go the Distance
With a dedicated Firing Line that reaches out to 500 yards, you can push your guns and yourself to the limit.
If 500 yards isn’t your speed, our firing line starts at 25 yards on the Pistol and Offhand Range.
Don’t wait for fun
Our Trap, Skeet, and Sporting Clays ranges feature multiple stations. No matter how long the lines, you won’t be waiting long to get your time at the birds.
Open Range
Your NMLRA Membership grants you unlimited access to the range. Even if you can’t make it in for the championships, you can bring a buddy and spent the afternoon.
Modern amenities
Just because your hobbies are 200 years old doesn’t mean you have to leave the comforts of home behind. With modern full hookup campsites, you can relax in comfort after a long day of shooting and fun.
Close to Home
You won’t find a range like this any closer to home. We are less than a 2 Hour Drive from Cincinnati, Louisville, and Indianapolis. Perfect for a weekend outing with friends and family, or a week long stay to do it all.
