Travel Inquiry Safe spots to target shoot

Hey guys, making a trip from downstate with some buddies, going about 20 min west of St Ignace, and I’m gonna try to bring my Garand and my Dragunov to do some target shooting. There’s 10 of us and we’ll probably only do one magazine each so not trying to get carried away. Anyone know of any safe spots on state land nearby to do this? Really would like a berm and away from any people so we don’t disturb anyone doing it. Any advice is really appreciated!

Find a rifle range to go to

Did a quick google search and there’s nothing very close, or else I wouldn’t ask the question on Reddit, to the locals.

Sounds like your in the Deer Ranch or Lehtos Pasties area. Head west on US-2 and look for Brevort Lake Camp Ground Road (West end of Brevort Lake). Take that and it will dump you onto Worth Road. Take a right/east about 200 feet then take a left l/north onto the gravel road. Turn at the pipeline. Can't miss it.

Rock on. Nearest house is behind you on Worth.

I would add bug spray to your list for that spot. Last time I was there I picked up a bunch of ticks. Probably a fluke but better safe than sorry.

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted, thanks for the tip!

Not a fluke.
