Even with your own land, its hard to shoot like you are wanting to. Unless you have a deep gultch or wash/ drainage with good,natural, back stop. Otherwise, you'll have to be very aware of all houses surrounding the range. Thats what I found when setting up our range. Then my brother built a workshop almost in line with the backstop.
My friend put an end to his worries. His range has a 20 foot high berm. It's U shaped, 20 yards across and 70 yards max for distance. I covet his range.
