looking to purchase anywhere between 3-10 acres. mostly for recreational use. looking to stay within 2 hours of buffalo. might throw a small cabin on the land in a few years. does not need to have electric or water on the road. iv been looking online and i don’t really see much in the small amount of land I’m looking for. so if anyone here has acreage that would part with some or know someone selling let me know. Thx

Usually for shooting, you must be 500’ away from and roads or neighbors house/property

I may be mistaken though

I believe its 500’ from any occupied building/house you dont own or have permission to shoot close to (closer than 500’) and you cant shoot over a public road/highway (or shoot from a public road/highway) or in a village or city where discharging a firearm is illegal. Other than that I dont believe there are that many more regs in the countryside unless you are hunting.

yea not looking for that amount of acreage on the high side i want around 10 maybe a little less. the zoning for residential or industrial does not matter to me as long as the town lets the discharge of firearms

89 acres for 40k? not too shabby.  
Here’s the article… Bontrager is doing the auctions.

If you read the comments, the editor of the paper said they usually sell for less than the accessed value. If I were in the market, Id buy some 😛
