Looking mainly for public land (State or otherwise) within a 20 minute drive of West Branch where a person can safely and legally plink, sight in a rifle, maybe throw a few clays..
Such places might include old sand/gravel pits, dumps, or out-of-the-way forest/swamp where a shooter is unlikely to be harassed by private landowners or LE personnel.
IF none of the above is available, how about sportsmen clubs with established ranges? I'm not keen on indoor ranges.
Thanks. Look forward to your suggestions..
