[Magyars]

And this...is why we are moving to Delaware County near Parker City! I want a range in my back yard! I already picked the spot....

 

[Leadeye]

Start moving this week.

 

[DeadeyeChrista'sdad]

Don't shoot to the east.

 

[WhitleyStu]

No neighbors within 1/4 mile either side, and no one 1 mile behind makes for good "patio shooting"...

Back in the 1970's-80's(DAYS OF FREEDOM)people would let you shoot in their woods or other rural property. There were 5 different places I recall where you could shoot a gun(many times) back then. One guy would have an all day shooting party on a Sat.Nobody b....ed. Not anymore! Land gets sold to city slickers who don't want to scare the horses. And one gun/hunting friendly farm is all cracker boxes now.

Mass INGO shoot at Angie's house!

That would be so much fun!!!! Hubby put a bunch of straw bales on a pallet..I dont think they slow the bullets down to much but there is a huge hill behind them and then about 60 acres of field.

Plus, anytime you want, you can run in to Ludco and drool over firearms! Have fun....

I'm with ya

We moved from a mobile home park in the city to a house in the country in December. We absolutely love it. It's so dark we can actually see the stars, we can go outside and shoot, and we just walk across the field to squirrel and deer hunt. Plus, when it's not hunting season, we found out we can still watch the deer by throwing out a salt block and a feeder in the back yard

Amen! Nothing like sitting outside and hearing NOTHING manmade. I moved out here from the middle of Jasper, and the first thing I noticed was that. No noise. Took a few days to get used to it, now I wouldn't have it any other way.
As far as shooting, I've got some piled up logs and dirt, about 6 ft. high that I shoot into.

 

[DeadeyeChrista'sdad]

I get tickled at that. I'm about 1/4 mile off of SR 32, and all I hear lots of times is the tires on asphalt, till I get into the back yard. A buddy who lives in town in Oklahoma stayed in my guest room and woke up AMAZED at the lack of noise! I guess it's all relative. To be fair, though, it is pretty quiet at night, especially at the back of the house. All you do hear is a lonely freight train about a mile to the north. If that. Lots of coyotes, the occasional cow lowing, wind in the trees, stuff like that.

I would never live in town again. Only complaint is the REMC electric is expensive. I invested in rural land years ago.

I so need to build a nice berm like that. All we got is flat farmland around us.

Hearing the echo of a .223 off barns and such is kind of cool.

You're very lucky. I can't wait to get out of suburbs. Someday...
