Is it a bad idea to find some really rural forest in ohio to target shoot in?
nope

what do you mean by "find"? shoot on it without the landowner's permission?
No. I do the same in New Mexico.
No. I do the same in Florida
>>32861367
good luck with that. private land is pretty much the only way you can shoot innawoods here
As long as it's on public land. There are some excellent shooting ranges in Ohio though, what part are you in?
>>32861854
There's no public land you can just go shoot on in ohio
>>32861367
Not really, unless it's private property you own or unless the owners of the property allow you. Otherwise we only have one National Forest here, and it's like two hours away from me so I'm not sure what the laws are there.

that would be bad
OP's best bet is to find a neighbor/friend with a good chunk of land and get their permission to shoot on their property, perhaps offer to maintain the bits and areas of their property that you use, that is what my friends do to use ATV trails on private property in VT

There is a closed gravel pit were allowed to shoot in here. The city wanted to make a public shooting range but a township said no and just because noise I always just assumed other counties had public shooting ranges
>>32861367
Man I wonder the same thing here in Louisiana. I actually emailed the people in charge of WMAs here and they all told me it's not allowed. Some of the WMAs do have shooting ranges.

Come on down to good ol' South eastern shit hole with me and kill varmints with me queer.
God I fucking wish I had his hair.

I've been trying to find someone like this, I don't shoot very much since I moved closer to the city nowadays. It's suffering not living within 20min of a range.

there are some pretty rural areas in Ohio.

Salt fork sp
Fernwood sf
Harrison sf
Those are just the three I go too.
Odnr has a list of public ranges.
>>32861367
Just stay away from SW ohio, I can get a little jumpy out in the woods.
Fair warning.
