New State Discharge Law

Getting ready for the season I was target shooting the other day at my range as I and the family has done for years when a state trooper showed up. It seems a neighbor complained and that I was to be informed of the new law on discharge of firearms. Previous law allowed you to target shoot on your own land, and yes I have a back stop. The new law requires you to 100 yards, 300 feet from any type of building or storage area. Well yes there is a building on my neighbors that was within the 100 yard rule. So the range is shut down until the farm tractor can plow another pile of dirt 20 yards out. Make sure you know the new rule, 100 yards regardless of property ownership
