No, please don't do that. Even land in the desert is owned by someone and you'd be breaking several laws by trespassing on private property, as well as the illegal discharge of a firearm.

I live in a rural desert community and there are already 3 bullet holes in my barn from people like you who drive out here to shoot, thinking they are in the wilderness. They weren't responsible gun owners, they had no thought or concern about how far their bullets travel or the damage they did, because they mistakenly believed this is nothing but an unpopulated desert.

So far only my barn has been hit, but many of my neighbors haven't been so lucky. Stray bullets have gone through walls, windows, cars, and killed or injured pets and livestock. The use of "explosive targets" in an area of tinder dry brush has started numerous, fast raging fires that have burned fields, outbuildings, fences and farm equipment, costing not only the owners, but the tax payers who pay for the emergency response from police and fire services.

Please, be a responsible gun owner and go to the shooting range, pay the fees, and fire off your big guns safely... not in my backyard.
