[QUOTE="Oryx_Official, post: 2386955, member: 120307"] Since I've never seen many resources for public land shooting I thought it might be a decent idea to write about how ranges are templated. It's something I learned in the military but can also apply to public land use for long range shooting, matches (which I know some guys that do this) or even pistol and carbine stuff. I think people should know this because we had some shooting areas shut down in British Columbia from stray bullets almost impacting people in high traffic outdoors areas. The safer people are and the less amount of bad press we get as a community, the better. All of the resources I pulled for this were from the Marine Corps manuals and Royal Canadian Mounted Police so they're easy to find. There's probably a few people on here that can answer questions or expand on this knowledge as well. The blog post basically covers everything you need to create a danger area trace using a map, compass and templates for the caliber you're shooting. If you're interested in this (which I imagine people are) take a look and add any additional input or questions below.
