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?

you do not need to certify if it’s private personal use

Where’s the “private personal use” exemption in the Firearms Act and Regs? Hint - there isn’t one.
