Shooting Who’s down to build a range?

I’m so tired of RSO telling me when i can stand and sit and if i can shoot a 12g at a paper target
Im in ontario, who wants to grab some acres out in parry sound and build a private range with me?

Curious where you normally shoot that the RSO dictates whether you stand or sit?

Silverdale gun club, got sitting benches on the 100m

That's all due to the neighbors trying to shut them down...they're doing all they can to prevent any possibility of any projectile leaving the range. A couple years ago the neighbor (group) was arguing that "bullets were landing on their property". They produced an unfired rifle round as proof - yes, seriously.

60% more bullet per bullet.

Sitting benches (only a few standing but for steel), no buckshots and no “rapid” fire aka 1 shot/5s is quite frustrating.
RSO are working hard to limit the amount of fun one have at the range.

i don’t even plan to go rapid fire but i mean i would like to have the ability to improve my speed… i can shoot all targets on point but whats the point if i cant develop speed

Ah! Been at the 100 yard range there…You can’t even see the targets while standing due to the wall a few yards from the benches, so I don’t know how you would stand anyway.
