Like the title says, looking for somewhere to shoot at night, or at the least in the dark. Has to be legal, has to be private, has to be pretty close to the cities.
Let me know if you have or know of anywhere suitable. Thanks!

I'm just curious, why do you want to shoot at night? Do you have a night scope, tracers, etc? The best bet I think would be to find someone with private land where you could go do some night shooting at; however, doing so within the city limits or even close to them may be problematic. Best to find space as far from the city as possible, especially if you plan on going all Rambo or something crazy like that.
Now how do you find such a place? Well, you can certainly ask on here, which you've done, but the problem I see beyond that is:
1) Why?
2) If you don't have a place already lined up, then you don't know someone, and why would someone let you shoot at night on their property?
I'm just playing Devil's advocate here and asking some questions. If I owned a bunch of land, would I let someone I didn't know come onto it and shoot at night (let alone for an unspecified reason)? No. I wouldn't. I don't think most people would either.
I'd bet that someone on this board either has or knows someone who owns or has access to the land you are looking for, but you may stand a better chance if you provide more details.
All just my opinion. I also tend to err on the side of caution as well, so keep that in mind.

Also, you should probably get some of those Dragon's Breath shotgun shells, to see if they make any more flame than Bubba.

I'm in Hudson, and keep in mind... I don't have the test tube built yet....
Edit: but I just realized we could fill up a barrel with water and shoot through some carpet to stop the splash...
Just an idea.
