Illinois is a whole different world than Montana.Check your state laws on shooting ranges. It is nearly impossible to shut down a private range here in Montana. I registered mine with the state on advise of a deputy friend over 35 years ago.
I recall a case where a new housing development wanted a shooting range shut down. The land the range was on was zoned agricultural, so the range users put the word out they would be replacing the range with a close confinement hog farm. That was liked even less than olethe shooting,
Someone moved next to a hog feed out operation near here and tried to shut it down because of the smell. That did not work out well for him.Hold a fundraiser to buy them noise-cancelling headphones.
Seriously, if they didn't know of your existence before moving, that's on them or their realtor. Can't move next to a farm and then complain about the rooster.
We in Nelson NZ have just the same situation only one man in a remote place being a PITA he bought the place 40 odd years ago but now moans about the noise !. Police use it three times mid week but he doesn't moan to them. A chuffin nuisance but this isn't unusual these days .Unfortunately, lead litigation doesn't surprise me. Since your in a liberal state (like me) you may have legitimate concerns depending on the county you live in and how far the complainant is willing to go.
I live in a liberal state, however the county I live in is very conservative. We had a similar situation, a new development moved in and put up some fancy new houses next to the sportsman club. They tried to shut the club down, but the club was there much longer than the new neighbors. The local Judge told them to pound sand, the club was there 1st and the home buyers should have thought about their purchase of a home next to an existing gun range.
