    Lots of private ranges along the Front Range, both indoor and outdoor. In addition, if you live in El Paso County, there's an excellent public range just off Fort Carson. No problems with steel case, just pick up after yourself. What most of the ranges I've been at have a problem with is steel core since it screws up targets and backstops. There are also public lands you can shoot at but the antigunners are slowly encroaching on those.

    Thanks for the insight. I know Colorado is slowly becoming anti-gunner, hence my hesitation. All my wife's family lives there, and other than for school we have no ties to family or community out here in Idaho. A GOOD hourly job in Idaho pays 12-15 dollars an hour, and that's with some experience. Those jobs are almost nonexistent, and they go quick. As much as I'd love to finish out my education, my heart really isn't in my current major and at my current University, I am too far along to switch as I have too many credits. I've considered attending a trade school or apprenticing as a gunsmith (or attending the gunsmithing school in Colorado Springs), but academically I've just struggled the whole way. I even got an offer to be trained as a locksmith by a family friend out there if I was open to moving back.

    Hindsight is also kind of 20/20. I finally convinced my wife to get her Idaho standard CWL....it'll be no good if we move.
