BLM/NON-REGULATED RANGE NEAR SACRAMENTO?

[supersonic10MM]

YOLO is my go-to range for working up loads but their rules are extremely lame (1 shot every 1 second, no steel targets, no humanoid silhouette targets, wooden structure “vertical limiters” in front of the benches which limit shooters’ visibility on 50/100 yd ranges, etc.)

SLY PARK/MORMON EMIGRANT for everything else where you can bring your own steel, ballistic gel blocks, shoot as fast as your heart desires, etc.

Problem is, both these ranges are 40-90 minutes from Sacramento. Does anyone have a SAFE, unregulated land (BLM, private property, etc) closer to me that they are willing to give up? Private messages are not only understandable, but welcomed & encouraged!!

Thanks, guys!

Camp Far West outside of Wheatland. Depending on the day and time it can be a zoo and a little dangerous. On weekdays it can be deserted.

You mean this place? Doesn’t look like much of a range. Do you fire over the water? Or is the range somewhere else?

there's definitely nothing closer than an hour, just look at a map there's no BLM land around Sacramento. Everywhere you can shoot is marked on google maps so you can find it pretty easily but as I said, there's nothing close an most of it is closed more than half the year for fire.

I think he's talking about spenceville. add "shooting range" when you search a place

It's all the middle of nowhere mountain places like 1.5 hours NE of Sac

Spenceville is probably your best bet however it is a little over an hour away from Sacramento. It is regulated however no full time staff on site. Rangers will come and check in from time to time. Only had one instance of a person shoot during a ceasefire while down range setting up targets. Be safe, clean up after yourself and you'll have a great time.
