Where can I go for shooting practice?
|
BLM Multi-Use Recreational Areas (Public Lands) |
Desert
shooting: Hang out with other shooters long enough, and
they'll show you their favorite off-road areas on which to shoot.
There are no official maps to such spots, but there is a map that shows
"congested areas for firearms" where you may not shoot.
See map here. |
Washoe County and BLM have the same standards:
- When shooting pistols or rifles, you must be 5,000 feet
from any dwelling occupied by another person or persons.
- When shooting shotguns, BB Guns, or Air Rifles, you must be 1,000
feet from any dwelling occupied by another person or persons.
- Read the law for yourself here:

Whatever you bring onto public
lands, please pack it out with you.
Please don't make your fellow shooters clean up after you.
Keep it safe and keep it clean.
Thank you! |
