longer than a 200 yard range?

[OldSchoolWNY]

Hello everyone, I spent most of last summer shooting 22 because i don't have a place to shoot over 200 yards. Atleast 22 gives a challenge.
is there anyone in the Corning / Bath area that would be willing to let me shoot with them at a longer range?

If you are in WNY Evans has a range out to 350.

If you cannot find a long enough range around you, tiny targets are a great challenge as well.

find a Farm in the area and meet the owner and have a chat ..

i had a hunting spot and a 300 yrd shooting range any time i wanted to go shoot

on the farm till the owner passed away last year just before deer season started

250

I thought they had pushed it out to 350 last year.

I envy the folks in states like Utah. There they just go out to an open space and shoot towards the mountains.

I wish. There's been discussion of extending but not much else. Would be an involved project.

I seen mention on the web of the range moving out to 500 in the next year.

Well, his post is a couple years old. I know when we acquired the additional 30 acres that made the concept possible. The reality of the project is very involved. There's been some informal discussions but I think we need to make some big initial investigative steps first. We have some geographical / layout challenges.

if we could only shoot from hill top to hill top over farm fields and highways here in NYS ..

 

[OldSchoolWNY]

I do shoot the small targets now. just looking for something different, I'll check out the Auburn range.

 

[OldSchoolWNY]

i found a spot to shoot out to 400 . was shooting 300 today.

Come visit, we have 2 1000 yard ranges.

But a second vote for Thurstons in Auburn. Used to be fun to go shoot and then go to Bass Pro but BP sucks now.

Even the commercial shooting ranges out here are long.

I think there's 3 separate 1000yd ranges in Tucson.

got a 8 mile range here ..

Groveland to Mt Morris

LOL
