[C'mon man!]

Unincorporated Cobb, the only restriction is that you cannot shoot over or on someone else's property without permission and then the state restriction of 150' from public road. Am I missing anything that can get a man plinking with 22 quiets in his wooded backyard, with no neighbors behind, in trouble?

I thought there was a 150' from a house rule too, I'm pretty sure there is in Forsyth county .....???

This is all I can find:

The state law requiring 50 yards from any street or Highway has a new exception for when you are not visible from the road.
See 16-11-103 (c) and note that it applies to varies kinds of private or public shooting ranges.

I thought it was illegal to discharge firearms in all of Cobb County (with the exception of licensed ranges). Maybe that applies to hunting only.

That way in Clarke.

Plus you have to be 900 feet from the property line to discharge a center fire rifle, and 300 feet for all other guns.

Dang, Clarke county is pretty strict!
