Minnetonka Game & Fish Club has long range rifle ranges. I know the standard benchrest one is at least 200 yards. They have one out to 400 too, but that may be restricted. They are located just NE of Elk River.

You should post your location so we could help you find somewhere closer to you. 200 yards should be an easy range to find.

What about your club? Just an FYI, there is no public shooting at NSRC.

You can go to 300 at Rainbow. But it's a bit of a wonky setup and requires no one else to be using the rifle range.

Note that Rainbow is member only, but membership is cheap and available.

I have had guys just drive down to the 100 yard line at rainbow while working from both the 200 and 300 yard firing lines.

Even WITH the safety gate in place.

Ahlman's has a range that I believe goes to 200 yards.
Their place is west of Warsaw, north of Morristown.
Simple drive from south Minneapolis.

Faribault Rifle & Pistol Club has ranges to 600 yards.

The rifle ranges are undergoing MAJOR modifications this summer, so they will not be available for a period of time.

3500 yards would be petty sporty. ;)
