New firearms owner and now licensed.
I have a question regarding shooting on private property
My uncle has just over 10 acres in a rural area, some houses close by but not in near proximity.
Am i legally allowed to shoot on his property?
Any feedback is helpful, i tried looking on SAPOL and a few other sites but couldn't find any information about this.
Thanks all!

How near?
What are you proposing to shoot at/with?
Council zoning?
I’m a blocky...15 acres zoned ‘rural living’. My neighbor is more than happy for me to snot ‘pest’ species on mine and his. Is it legal? Likely not.
10 acres doesn’t give you a lot of margin....

His licence reason for ownership was hunting - and he clearly was not hunting...
Yes - I agree, his name is an easy find on platforms like FB, but be aware I guess...
