I like Iron sights in oceanside.

How about you?

Used to be 700 yards, but now maybe 300 yards, old age, back and hand injuries.

I usually shoot on a private range on a friend's cattle ranch.  I went yesterday to test some 375 H&H loads and cleared some tall sagebrush so I can now shoot from the 300 and 400 yard lines.

My usual range is home, home on the the range
Where the deer and the antelope play,
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word,
And the skies are not cloudy all day.

Wow!! That's the same range I use! Small world!! Pew Pew

I ended up being cured of belonging to and shooting at established 'ranges' when, despite a friend of mine and I following all the safety procedures, I ended up changing targets when the group on the adjacent range began shooting.  The range master tried blaming my friend and I, but when it was pointed out that all protocols were followed and he had simply 'forgotten' about us, he grunted and stalked off.  After that, I made sure I was alone on the range before allowing my membership to lapse.  Since then, I seek out 'unofficial' locations where it is legal to shoot, with proper attention to back stops, etc.  Let's just say (knock on wood) that I haven't had another 'incident' in 40 years.  Unfortunately, even in the remote areas, such locations have become increasingly difficult to find and with gas prices being what they are, along with my physical limitations...

I still get to shoot.  Just not as often or 'conveniently' as I used to.

I now go to my private shooting range located on my hill, past my pond but I've only got 200 yards up there.

Yeah, it's a quite noticeable trend around here these days...

At least I didn't bump the thread just to smite people (also a fad a few days ago)

livermore though i do more trap there. if off and willing to drive far, i'll go to sac valley for 300 yds. i can do 100 at livermore but can do that on weekends vs taking advantage of a day off for something more interesting of a day.

My backyard.  It goes back to the low line of evergreens in the distance, (540 yards).
