target shooting in Sac. County

[NATEWA]

My buddy lives in "the country" south of Elk Grove. It's technically in Sac. County. The community is a mixture of 5 and 10 acre parcels. Anyone know the law regarding shooting on his property into a vacant parcel next to his? I think for upland game hunting you have to be 100 yards or so from a road or structure.

Thoughts? Don't want the SWAT team rolling in on us for shooting cans or get cited/arrested.

Thanks

You need to chat with the Sheriff reps in Wilton, and bring a map. http://www.sacsheriff.com/info/servicecenters.cfm
The broad area you described contains two airfields and a correctional facility, as well as a sheriff firearms training site and other Elk Grove municipal facilities. If you are shooting from the "wrong" area into or around a "wrong" area, you will attract attention.

If approved to shoot, you may want to notify the locals before you open up.

It's in the wilton area - far from airport, jail and range. Will call SO as recommended to find out.

You are so close to Sac Valley Shooting Center why not go there? It is a great facility. The CDC use it as well as a lot of LEO's and military groups. Lots of ranges and clubs from 1,000 yard range to all the action pistol ranges etc.

I've been there before - very nice place but it's another hour round trip, plus fees. I'm cheap and lazy
