Default Sighting in / Target shooting on private property

I am a land owner in New York state. I hunt during the regular gun season and small game (Turkey) in the spring.
My question is, are there any laws regulating target shooting on one's own land (outside hunting season of course). I know that you can not discharge a firearm within a certain distance from a dwelling, but this is not a concern on my property. It is vacant wooded land.
We camp there during the summer months and would like to set up some targets to plink away at, I just want to make sure it is legal.
Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated.
