The Department of Natural Resources is opening its new Barry County Shooting Range Nov. 3rd. The all-accessible shooting range is located on Chief Noonday Road/M-179 within the Barry State Game area in Rutland Township. It will offer target shooting for handguns and rifles, as well as sporting clay shooting. Visitors need to bring their own Targets.
The Range will be open 9am to 5pm October through December and 9am to 7pm April through September. It will be closed winter months. Temporary closures may be necessary in the future to allow the builders to complete some remaining components.
With the opening of the new range, other informal target shooting areas within the Barry State Game Area will no longer be available for dispersed target shooting.
