English term or phrase: (artillery) shooting camp
I am actually translating the text from Finnish int Russian. The Finnish term is (tykistön) ampumaleiri.

I have been suggested полигон, but it is not about the place, but more about an event (like пионерский лагерь).

This is a camp (лагерь) where artillery (and other military branches) shoot live ammunition. It may happen on the shooting range, but not necessarily.

Google seems to bounce all my suggestions.
