Re: kansas
Fort Riley has a rifle range that you should be able to use with a personal weapon. It goes to 1000 yards, although I believe they were upgrading or doing maintenace on parts of it. Contact the range master when you get there and he will be able to square you away. If not, there are a couple of ranges within 30-45 minute drive, depending on teh distance you want to shoot. Can't help you as far as the hunting. Good luck!
