Personaly I have been to a couple of them for 3-d shoots but couldn't tell you which one is better than the other. I would try Wilton first as it is the closest. I shoot in the back yard with my bow and down the road in a field with the gun, there are other places too but I dont have the info on them, Fishcreek in Victory mills comes to mind.

Good luck and welcome to the area.
