So my original answer still stands correct. The absolute bare minimum to shoot rifles is 50 acres, certain locations increase this to 100.

Either way 12 may only be good enough for pistol, shotgun, bow, and air.

I was under the impression that for rifles the minimum was 50. A city or subdivision does not supercede that minimum.

Not sure what you are quoting but I think that is pretty wrong.

Sec. 229.002.

I bet it is. My little 2 acres definitely isn't enough but it is a decent compromise, all things considered.

We have 20 so plenty of shotgun room. Behind us is better then 500 acres.
We have plenty of coon and other small varmint hunting

I'm looking at 12 acres right now. It's narrow and very long. I expect neighbors (like me) will be putting houses near the front so I put the hand gun range near the back, and I could do some rifle shooting.

You can't shoot rifles on 12 acres. I believe it has to be 50+ for rifles. I could be misremembering, or this may only apply if you ar in an etj... Please do a search here, it had been covered in detail.
