If it's private land be sure to get permission first. Your local Sheriffs office or police department may also be able to direct you to an area where people shoot, as well as where the city limits end.

Way off topic, but yes, I was referencing you.

Gun clubs in my area are pricey, and from what I hear, "good ole boy" related. I'm cheap (on some things) and not local, and not planning to stay that way. I found my local outdoor range, but it's pretty ... how to be polite ... well, a trash dump looks rather similar. Isolated, random trash/melons/clay pigeons/brass everywhere. The few times I'm there alone it's fine for some drills, but when there are folks there, it's very loose rules. More than once I've started past the line after a general cease fire and some jackwad started popping off rounds.
