Shooting near homes?

I have the same issue at a property I hunt. If there are any known structures or people down range, within a reasonable distance, regardless of any elevation change or obstruction, I'm not shooting.

My buddy wanted to shoot a buck this last season, but there was homes and horses in the background.

A deer is not worth it.

I'm shooting.. if me and the animal I'm pursuing are on legally accessible land, with a clear and safe direction of fire I'm sending it.
If u don't like it, sell your house and move.
Your feelings don't trump my rights.

ah a Californian well I wouldn’t be too concerned there are enough Californians who live and hunt here now we don’t even have to leave our state to experience west coast culture

That explains all the Subarus and Lexus we saw this year

Posts up a field surrounded by houses but its the middle of nowhere:ROFLMAO:

Please stay in the east
Huh? This is literally 12 miles from a town in NW CO where I live and the nearby town is small. Small rural group of houses surrounded by public land and ranches. No need to be rude about it. For the majority of Americans, this is middle of nowhere. Definitely not the north Nevada desert though.

Thats not that far out. You posted a pic of a field with houses on 3 sides of it. Very clear that it isnt in the middle of nowhere. Just because it is legal doesnt mean you should...

Personally no. It comes down to your personal ethics, you choose to not shoot it due to the homes, so that's your personal ethics.

Just having to ask the question shows we don’t have enough safety education, warnings on every part of every rifle, laser etched warnings on every piece of brass, lawsuits, and public service announcements. Cheese and rice.

Wtf

Do you know how stupid it sounds to say you’re actually thinking about firing a high power rifle directly in the direction of people?
