Was just out today playing with the Anschutz 8002. She is silent and a blast to shoot. Have a stack of 6x6 yard timbers as a backstop. Nothing is going through them at 30 yards.

Should make you happy that such a thing is possible… and 9 yards is better than no shooting at all.

I haven't bought that Gamo yet, but if I start hiking at daybreak tomorrow morning from my backyard thru the forest, I can make the Canadian border in a few days without seeing anybody. I think I can just use my old archery range and be good up to 50 yards. My neighbors all have 4 legs, or wings.

Come to America! As far as I know we are still welcoming to immigration, especially if you’d like to purchase land and come from the old world

I absolutely love it! I can position myself just right in my back yard and shoot out to at least 100 yds. Positively fantastic!

I have a maximum of 33 yards, but I make it work.
My most recent rifle purchase I finally embraced that this is the distance maximum I shoot the most, since its my backyard. So I went with a compact 177 to challenge myself and have a lot of fun.

This is off my covered deck, 200 yards,
presently can shoot from an upstairs window, but need to change a window downstairs so I can shoot from 1 st floor and be close to the wood stove. Possibly cut a few more trees and get more from this spot. Need to stack some pallets to fill in the dip at 100 yds. There is another more flat approach angle at this hillside from the right, with a shoot shed. Will get some pics.

Ditto --- this is why I sold my .25 L2 --- just more gun than I can use with regularity. If I'm going through the rigamarole to go to the range, I'm shooting clays.

We moved north an hour and bought 40 acres, we have 9000' directly north through dense woods after our cleared land to drop boolits/slugs/pellets into with no thoughts of humans being there.
We have a bermed 50y range and target stands at 100y, a steel baker at 150 and 200y.

I live in what American’s consider a “liberal” state. That said, in most such states the people who don’t like guns are mostly isolated to the cities. So even if you pick a liberal state you can still live a good life if the state hasn’t passed too strict gun laws. I’d start with this map for a feel of which states are conservative friendly. Red = conservative.

Well, I don't have the acreage that some of you enjoy shooting in, but I do have a half acre lot with 35 yards of shooting range in my back yard. Neighbors on three sides; with the back neighbors being down the hill. I'm also in North County San Diego, so the weather is good for shooting most times! That also means that shooting firearms means some long travel times through omnipresent traffic from my house through the suburban and exurban megalopolis! When I use the full length of the back yard I am reminded what a good shooter I'm not.

a few more pics, clean out the shack. Add a few targets down range. Same hillside, a different angle at it.

This one is from the top of hill down hill into a gulley. 150 yards. From this view , there are several nice 100 yd alleys from right to left, all from a nice flat outlook, would be good if I could get a trailer back there. I filled the target 2x4 frame with rubber mulch. 22" x 45" x 3.5" took 2.5 bags, @
