Over-the-counter deer firearm permit sales begin on Tuesday, Oct. 20. Due to recent software updates beyond IDNR’s control, some vendors may have limited availability to print permits and licenses. IDNR is working closely with the license system provider to quickly address the issue for those vendors. To locate unaffected vendors, use the agent locator at https://www.exploremoreil.com/agentlocator.

Rifle and pistol shooting

The World Shooting and Recreational Complex is currently working with organized groups to utilize rifle and pistol shooting at the facility.

If you are interested in hosting an organized event or want to shoot recreationally, please contact our berm manager at 618-295-2550. As events are approved, they will be listed on the calendar.

The WSRC has 12 bays that offer shooting up to 40 yards in distance. Those interested in participating or observing our sanctioned events can view or sign up at PractiScore.com. Just search for WSRC.

Check the calendar for shooting days, including registered shoots, fundraisers, and walk-up weekends.
