Where to Pattern a Shotgun

[GSinsley]

I just got a shotgun that I would like to pattern a few different shells in. Is patterning shotguns allowed at Scotia Range? (I've never been there.) If so do they have backstops or anything to put a target on? If not could you recommend somewhere else to go? Thank you!

They do allow shotgun patterning at Scotia. They have a special target frame for that which they keep at the range office. You just have to ask to borrow it.

Scotia allows for shotgun patterning, when you get there and go to the main building tell the guy there (if he's around) what you need to do and he should give you a large piece of cardboard they have set aside for patterning. I believe you are able to use the range between the pistol range and the police range, looks like an empty bay.

Thanks for the help!

Liberty Township Sportsmens Club near Beech Creek allows pretty much anything. You could pattern your shotgun using live puppies there if you wanted. Well OK, maybe not LIVE puppies, but just about anything else.
