Application / Regulation advice Long Range Shooting Options Ontario

I've been really wanting to get into long range precision shooting recently but have only been able to find a few ways to shoot over 600 meters. Either at CFB Borden up to 1k yards or MilCun up to 600m both through the Ontario Rifle Association.

I'm wondering if it might be possible to drive down to Michigan or New York or other nearby states and utilize their ranges, does anyone have experience doing this? I'm quite new to shooting and not sure what the laws are like in terms of taking firearms to and from the states.

Also, I've seen some people saying to use crown land but I don't think I'd feel comfortable shooting off range.

Would love to hear any ideas anyone has for long range shooting options in or near Ontario, I'm completely fine with driving 3+ hours.

Any reason you don’t want to join the ontario rifle association? Shooting 1k yards at Borden is great and milcun is also fine

Not saying I don’t want to join the ORA, I likely will. I am just curious if anyone knows of a range in Ontario or neighbouring provinces or states that offer shooting past 1000 yards.

Ah gotcha. For what it’s worth the ORA is great and I highly recommend it. As for shooting farther, there’s nothing farther than Borden and Milcun 1000 yard ranges

Good to hear on the ORA, very high likelihood I’ll join in the near future. Disappointed that Ontario is so limited however.
