Default Sighting in rifles on crown land

So guys, I haven't been out for a while and want to shoot just a few rounds to double check accuracy. What would be closest area to shoot 100 yards from Okotoks? I used to go west of Millerville on hiway 549. Is that still allowed? On crown land of course.....

Most of them still don't bother going that far.
