Keep in mind that there is more to consider than just legality. It may be entirely legal. But it may also tick off the neighbors. And being at odds with your neighbors can turn into nightmare of monumental proportions.
Before you buy, make sure you know who and where your neighbors are and their attitudes/tolerance for shooting. Also make sure you understand any vacant properties in the area and those that could possibly be sold sometime in the future to someone who may not appreciate your range like you do.
And yes, it's real easy to say "tough luck, I was here first." But again, life is too short to be feuding with neighbors.

A friend of mine in the unincorporated part of Spokane County has one. He is outside the no shooting area between Colbert and Deer Park. Works well. Minimum lot sizes are 10 acres. Actually quite a few people out there have private ranges. Just have to live outside the no shooting zones and it's not a problem for personal use in this county.Say I want to build myself a little 50 yard range on my property and shoot my rifles. Where in WA can I do this, legally, if anywhere?
Or you could move to a big city where shooting is a daily event.Ok, thanks for the replies . Screw this. I'll just buy an island somewhere.

I wonder how big of a deal that actually is. I've never considered that angle.Something else to consider is if you sell the property or if the government finds out you are shotting, you might have to deal with the lead pollution in the ground.
