    Default Shooting Areas Out east

    Hi all, I recently moved to Aurora when I got married and it makes it harder for my wife and I to get to some of our favorite shooting places in the mountains. Does anyone know any locations more east of Aurora? I know there is some range in Wiggins but I can't tell if there is any local grass lands or BLM land in this area. Thanks for the help.

    Colorado Rifle Club and there is another one nearby, but I can't remember the name.

    Lead Valley is east, Ben Lohman is southeast.

    To answer your question you are better off choosing amongst the paid clubs if you are looking for a place to shoot east of metro. Everyone will have a different preference as to where to go so I will leave you to your research.

    Out by Wiggins there is no public land available. As far as I know the majority of it is all private. The Wiggins range is open as far as I can tell.

    Hope it is reopened. It was locked up tight as recently as 2 weeks ago when I stopped by. Good to hear the town has taken it over from American Legion and going to try and make it work out.

    I'd like to fine a place that's pretty isolated where i can move a bit more.

    There is also the Pawnee grasslands up east of Greeley. But like mentioned before, you are better off joining a club.
