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?

My guy, I've been dreaming of doing this for years. Buy some land, get an excavator and clear an area, build up a nice backstop for a range. Do some hunting in the fall, camping in the summer, get eaten alive by those lovely Ontario Blackflies, but it would be worth it. Shooting on private land seems to be the only way forwards. The ranges in this province are full of gate-keepers and I've grown tired with communicating with them to try and get membership.
