I live in Western Washington. Places to shoot outdoors are either commercial ranges or gun clubs with lists of draconian rules on the inside of each shooting bay (seriously, my local club now has a two-page list of rules) and officious, authoritarian range staff, Sometimes it rains. This time of year, if it's not raining, it's windy. Shooting on public land takes a long drive, and you're taking your life in your hands being there with the morons who seem to like shooting for free and leaving literal tons of trash for others to pick up. I used to love shooting outdoors until I got to this area.
We are blessed with a couple great indoor facilities near Seattle and a couple not-so-nice ones on my end of the Sound.
All things considered, though, I would much rather shoot outside -- and for me, it's all about being in natural light. I shoot way better outdoors. I just can't see as well in the typically not well-lighted indoor ranges.
