    Hi Rushy,

    I went through this 'what to do' process myself. In the end I wrote out a 'Range Protocol' checklist. Each range user fills out a sheet which is kept in a folder. I have a range use record which I can use as proof of use and good practice etc in the future if required. It acts as a good safety checklist
    PM me your email and I will forward you the document

    You could invite the Wanganui River to your next shoot.

    You should come for a shoot some time.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Shhh,
    In Australia, my state at least we can sight in on private land but we can't actually target shoot technically.
    We possibly could apply to have a private range certified by the police licencesing inspector I guess but they are getting tougher. Backstop butts and other precautions may be required , particularly where there might be dwellings within a given arc and distance.
    People would be practicing or setting up targets doing no harm but if it's discreet and on large properties Noone is looking to investigate further.
    I just wouldn't publicise it.
