This ^ what I know. A minimum of 10Acres in un-incorporated areas.
You are mis-reading it. A county cannot regulate more than 10 acres, but if the county chooses not to regulate at all, you can shoot on your property of any size, outside of any city limits, as long as the rounds do not leave the property.

The best thing the OP can do is monitor the activities for stray rounds, and they can prove the rounds left the property (proving the "range" is unsafe), they wil have a case. There is some civil case law where a range operator was forced to make safety improvements becasue of a neighbors complaint (see Chandler's Gun Range in Valley Mills, TX).
