Air gun range? (Lincoln)

<< < (2/3) > >>

Jesse T:
Should be fine to shoot at any firearms freindly WMA - that is any WMA that is not specifically posted no shooting.  I beleive there are a couple up in the NW part of lancaster county, Northern part of the branched oak areas.

If you do build something in the basement, make wooden box and fill it with duct seal.  It's kind of like a putty that never dries out.  You can get it in the electrical section at the hardware store.  Pellets barely penetrate it and it's dead quiet.  I think I used about 8-10 lbs in mine.

Dan W:
The Lincoln area still has competitions out in Airpark rec center and BBgun instruction has been held at Easterday rec center since the old range closed down.

Also some classes are held at the Lincoln Izaak Walton league club house

While I'm am not advocating (or not) that you shoot in your basement, Remember MAXIMUM eye protection for all that are in the basement.  I'd try to find a friend/acquaintance outside the city limits if possible to shoot on their property.  It's a different world from when I grew up with a BB gun...

I remember the 10th an Military range well.  I did my National Guard drills in the Navy asbestos repository next door (cough, cough)...

A friend of mine exchanged emails with the game and parks about target shooting in WMA's. Generally, there is no prohibition about target shooting in WMA's unless otherwie posted. And to note the obvious, be aware of your backstop and NO trash. Being respectful of the land and treating it well will go a long way in promoting good will between target shooters and Game and Parks. Have fun.
