The swamps have like 4 berms set up, cheaper than going to Niagara gun range. When it gets busy it can be a pain, but I was there early on Sunday and no one else was there. ---

What is the longest rifle shot you think they have there? It’s been a LONG time since I was there and I want to start sighting in my Grendel. It’s definitely a long range caliber but I need to start somewhere. ---

Are the swamps legit? Or is this a place where you look out for cops? Pretty far but might be fun if there are a few others there to shoot with, or provide medical attention when my homebuilt AK blows up in my face I finished it yesterday, itching to try it out ![http://i700.photobucket.com/albums/ww7/eMKayBFLO/file-57.jpg](http://i700.photobucket.com/albums/ww7/eMKayBFLO/file-57.jpg) ---

Swamps is legit, but there are rules about how early you can shoot, nothing before noon. Last time I was there I was told if you crack a shot off 5 minutes early you can count the seconds before the man shows up and starts handing out tickets. EDIT: Someone confirmed it was noon. ---
