Where do you shoot

The 3 gun ranges in the county are well within a half mile of residents . Will this affect those also . Need to investigate .
 
Most of my shooting is done at a Wildlife Management Area about 12 miles from home. Occasionally I will shoot at an indoor range in Lincoln, NE which is more than a hour away.

Indoor range in town abotu 20 min from where I live.
$200 a year membership free to shoot. You can use you own ammo for pistol,
rifle you must use thier ammo. 1 to 25 yards. Air Conditioned/heated)
(laugh about that all you want but when it's 105+ outside it sure is nice)

Outdoor range that is about 35 miles away. About a 2 hour drive round trip.
Menbership $20 a year and $10 to shoot or $200 a year with no charge to shoot. So if you go more than 18 times a year the $200 is a better deal.
Pistol with targets stands at 15 and 25 yd. Pistol with steel targets form about 7 to 25. Rimfire ranges with target stand at 5o feet 25 yd. Rimfire with steel targets. Rifle (you can shoot rimfire/piistol) with target stands at 100, steel targets at 200, 300, 400 and 550. Hand cocked bird throwers. A sporting clays range that costs extra to shoot on. one "Permission Use only Range" by permission. Target stands at 25 yd. Your range for you and your group. :cool: You can shoot at any distance from the target stand you want and you call your own line breaks for your group. Range staff needs to know/trust you to let you use it.
(get there early, or wait for whoever is using it to finish. No time limit)

All and all a pretty nice place with great staff, but can be really busy on the weekend.

Dream is to retire someplace (out of California) with enough land I can walk out side and shoot. (or drive just a bit on my own land someplace to shoot). ahhh well nice to dream...
 
500 acre ranch about 1.5 hour drive from home. My dad and I have always spent the weekends there since I was a little kid. Sometimes the cattle don't want to cooperate with me, but go put some feed out and they move off my homemade range! Reload all week, and shoot on the weekends!
 
I belong to two clubs, think I pay $200 for one and about $180 for the other. One has a very nice outdoor range. The first 5 positions have trolleys with a 25 yard backstop for pistol/.22s. The next several benches have a 100 yard backstop and after that a 200 yard backstop. The backstops are really bullet traps, they dozed the old dirt berms a few years back. Same club has a 25 yard indoor pistol range with electronic trolleys and an impressive air handling system. That club also has archery practice targets at 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 yards and an elevated stand for broadhead practice out to 30 yards. They have an NFAA and 3D archery courses, and 3 trap fields too. I'll be shooting 3D there tomorrow.

The second range has a 300 yard rifle range with shooting positions at 100, 200. and 300 yards. It also has a 50 yard outdoor pistol range. There is a 50 foot range inside the clubhouse. There are trap fields there as well. That range has about 600 acres of land including 60 acre pond. It is also surrounded by state land. I filled my turkey tag inside of one hour right on the rifle range this spring.

Go figure, but I do most of my pistol and .22 shooting at the free state owned 50 yard range. They have clay target throwing machines and archery practice targets as well.
 
Private club, about 3 miles from the house.
Nice little place, but only goes 50 yds.
For longer I have to go to the brother in law's farm.
 
1: off back deck 47 yd. 2: bottom of driveway 35 yd. 3 :side pasture 25 yd. 4: BLM land next lot over 76 yd. No set times no lines no fees :)

We also have a Trap & Skeet range close to my home.

And also an archery range even closer, which is no charge.

I don't miss living in South Dakota though. We couldn't target practice on public lands when I lived there.

I shoot at a semi-public range about 25 minutes drive from me. It has rifle lanes from 50 to 1000 yards, shotgun lanes, 4 pistol bays where you can draw from the holster, and a cowboy action shooting town. They do 3-gun and IDPA competitions once a month, along with long range compeititons. The only thing it doesn't have are clay launchers for the shotgun lanes. Not bad for $60/year, but I always wish that I had land of my own that I could shoot on.

Another range nearby is exclusively shotgun and has trap, skeet, sporting clays and 5-stand with voice activated launchers.
 
I shoot on my property. I'm also a land owner stock member of a shooting association, a dues paying member of sportsman club that leases land and a life member of a another sportsmen's club that is a 400 and some odd miles drive one way from our residence.
 
Member only range..Clear Creek County Sportsmans Club...about 20 minutes
from home. 2 covered rifle bays,1 open bay. 7 pistol and AW bays, trap. Been a member for over 20 years. $80 yr, combination locks. Long waiting list for membership!
Sometimes, you can see Bighorns in the rocks north of range.

I used to have a buddy's house i would shoot pistol at, could go out to 50m, then he sold the house cause military made him move. Now i go to the range, $8 all day, they have 8 ranges total, 2 ranges you can place targets out to 300, then they have steel out to 1000, 2 ranges are out to 100 for pistol and rifle, then there are 2 pistol ranges that go out to 50yds, that have steel or you can place your own targets, and they have a trap range and an archery range. They also do competitions once a month that are just for bragging rights, but still fun.
