Been here for 8 months now.
Weather? Like Oklahoma id guess, probably a bit more rain and ice
Area like? Friendly, has just about everything you'd need
Ranges? Cherokee is a very nice indoor range. Andy Dalton is a great KD style range for zeroing. Has shotgun stuff but not my thing.
I haven't tried out the outdoor club range by Billings yet
Best gun shop? That's heavily subjective I'd say. I really like Eagle Armory, and Cherokee. A host of other shops
Inspection? Yep, it's a breeze and cheap.
Personal property taxes is the oddity. Make sure to get your tax exemption from your county tax people before going to register when you move.
Overall it's a great place to live so far as someone who just moved here.
