Legal Target shooting on Petersburg game land

Hey, I live on the boarder in Ohio, and all we have over here is Midwest shooting center that is overpriced, I was doing some research and it appears your allowed to do target shooting at paper and cardboard targets without a license, even when hunting season isn't active. Is this true? Have any of you done it or been to the one in Petersburg? Is there a caliber or magazine limit, I would be shooting 5.56, 12 gauge buckshot and 22 lr. I am also 19 And also do I have to keep the rifle unloaded until I get to the spot or no. Thank you.

Thanks for taking the time to reply with the better link.

I did not take the time to read all the replies in the link I provided. Sorting by Hot and Best provided both postings together at the top of the page. I see this question asked so often that I really did want spend more time on it especially as I have a deadline to meet for something much more important.

Did you shoot there and have the police called on you the other day? I saw on Crime Radar that police responded there for a “Report of target shooting in hunting preserve” four days ago. If so, did they let you stay?
