Oh man, good luck, don't think there is a range long enough to shoot the x-guns safely in Alberta

Heard these tools can spike a bolt near 100's of yards with little to no skill, even a 3 year old can pound targets with these killing machines ! LOL

Yep better look for a 1000 yard range minimum especially if you have a true XGUN but if you have a crossbow should be no problem shooting your crossbow beside the compound bow and traditional bow guys.

You don't need a range. Pick up one of those stuffed $30 targets and find a field. I sight in at 30 yds.
