    Outdoor "public ranges" in the bc lower mainland.

    I was wondering if anyone knows any good places to go shoot. I have an sks and most ranges dont allow them anymore. I have a minivan and cant just drive deep into the mountains at this time of year. So in conclusion if anyone knows any good spots to pop off some rounds that is easily accessible i would greatly appreciate it.
    Thanks SST

    Well, im going with 3 friends so $80 could be better spent on ammo. I really would like to know if there are any good spots on crown land.

    Sylvester Road north of Mission. It can be a gong show and you should have all of your docs and licences in order as there are road checks.

    If you go please take out all of your targets as many of the morons leave them there and it is an eyesore for our shooting community.

    I believe DVC does not allow Centerfire rifles. That is probably what he is talking about.

    Almost Everything is allowed on the public range (range 7). No shot from shotguns though, only slugs.
