Lets see your home range

I sit at my dining room table and can shoot out to 200yrds. The traps you see are 30, 50 and 100 now because I am taking a break from major slug testing. All have remote control lighting as I do most of my testing at night in cleaner air at 100+ yards. The two glancing blows on my window frame are courtesy of my Leshiy. Nothing better than shooting in my pajamas eating a bowl of cereal.

Tons of ideas for new members!!!

I have targets all over. I think I like making them as much as shooting. This is my favorite. Its a simple 1/5 scale pig that I made for a swinger but hung it from a tree. I shoot it 55 yards offhand 60 is where it should be shot at but I have a mildot that is 55 on my Daystates and don't have to adjust. Even on busy days I can grab a rifle step out back and shoot a clip thru my Wolverine or Huntsman.

Lots of new members since this thread was open. Enjoy.

This is an excellent thread.  I dug out a range behind my shop, this berm is the result.12 ft. high 80 ft. long. Ironically I’m using the berm as my range and never one shot where I dug. This is off my covered porch 8 steps from warmth. This range is in a very early stage. 25 yds. to front ridge 30 yds. to bottom of berm and 35 yds. to top. Just got range finder thought I had 40+ yds. This one I’ll keep and spend some time on it. Shoot daily. I only shoot springers so this works for me. Crow 

Thanks Rob after I placed my post, gave me a wake up call, I spent 2 hrs. picking granite rocks out of range, 2 trailer loads. Give it another shot today if weather permits. Crow 

This is my backyard range, being in the country I can shoot anything, vut my airguns always seem to be my first choice. My biggist issue is wind, being wide open means most any beeeze blows my shots alot! Just to give you some idea the fire ring to the left is 30yds, the light pole to the right is 40 yds, the raft is 65yd and the old bldg is 125yds. I have targets on back edge of pond at 90 yds. Now...if I could figure out how to shield the wind??

My range 25 to 80 yards, steel and paper.The thing I like most is all my grandchildren shot there first shots here. I bought them all a Daisy Red Rider like I first learned to shoot with. The younger ones steal want to shoot when they come to visit. You can bet this range will be hot Thanksgiving Day.

I have a few lanes at the house. I have a target stand 35 yards from my enclosed porch fit zeroing and tuning. A couple other lanes out past 100 yards. I can get 1,000 yards on our farm, if I need to. 1,500 if I shoot from the neighbors farm, although I never have. 

Here's a video I did not long ago that gives a good overview of my #backyardplinking range.

I'm jealous of many of these ranges. They look great!!

Not as long as some folks on here, but I don’t have a farm, so I currently make do with 25-50 yards.



Target at 25 yards, spinners at 30 and steel plate on tree at 35

50 yards across the front of the house. The steel plate torso shows the results of 19 headshots, offhand, at 50 yards, from my Huben K1 .22

We have a small family business and we have a couple of buildings that are more than 200ft long where I can shoot inside, but last weekend I was shooting down the driveway between buildings. 


I don’t have a shooting bench or anything fancy like that, but I have a couple of John Deere tractors with pallet forks. Instant fully adjustable shooting table.

I shoot out of my coverd back porch. Its a bacon strip. Range goes out to 100 yards. I got spinners, saw blades, sockets, wrench, mower blade, spoons , metal targets, bells ect.. 50 plus targets. Always adding.

My home range had a small turn-out for this week's shoot - only 4 of us. Last couple of shoots it has been up at 7 shooters.

Main target arrays are out at 25 yards.



We've got paper on a trap for zeroing, and then a lot of cocktail pick type targets. And the Know Your Limits target comes out sometimes.



I try to change things up with targets - Last month we carved pumpkins and this month we de-feathered and carved turkeys.





Then, from the rightmost 2 shooting benches we have 52 yard paper targets available:



Can currently accommodate 6 shooters on permanent benches, and one or 2 more on portable benches. Hope to change this if Caldwell has good Black Friday prices on their Stable Tables, then we'll have good, solid spots for 8 shooters.

I have 50 yards to work with after clearing some trees and heavy vegetation. Here's my 13 foot tall target on a 2x4. I had to raise the target in order to have a flat line of sight because my range slopes down a valley.
