Just go crown land it's a bit far but it's worth it way better than a single lane range

Download ihunter and get the free trial so u don't have to pay and look around for spots that are purple near u that's what I did than go there scout it and and start shooting, once u pass London a lot of spots start showing just be careful to have a backstop and be away from a road cuz a lot of dumbass CO's with nothing else to do like to harass gun owners

Lantersearch.ca has been pretty solid for me. It shows more than just crown land and has filters for trails and other types of public land.

If you end up going then please take tarp from where you can shoot. So it's not a mess.

East Elgin sports association is easy to get into but it's like 1hr+ from you have trap on Sunday and have a 300m range, it's a ghost town during the weekdays I find

ranges near by and Im from Cambridge, Ontario.
EESA is about an hour away from you. Easily worth the drive as i do a 2 hour trek there from where I'm located.

Get on the waitlist for Galt Sportsman Club. There is also Guelph Rod & Gun, mostly likely a waitlist as well now.
You can also look south/south-west of Cambridge. May be easier to get in a club around Branford area, or even towards Simcoe/Port Dover.
For skeet/trap only club, there seems to be more around.
Pick a club or two that is hosting National Range Day on June 6 and go visit.
