What safety measures are in place?

We have strict safety measures, shooters cannot shoot until a red flag has been placed on the practice range.

Guns must be carried muzzle down or up, no sweeping or pointing the rifle anywhere but over the firing line.

During a ceasefire, a whistle ( on the woodland course) or air horn (on practice range), will be blown once.  Shooters must stop looking through their scopes and discharge the rifle safely into the ground (in front of firing line).  

Two whistles or air horn blasts, signifiy that it is safe to resume shooting.

Shooters with magazines are required to remove the magazines when moving between lanes or around the practice area.  When removing magazines, ensure that it hasn't already introduced a pellet into the cylinder by discharging over the firing line safely.

What are your opening times?

We are open every Sunday from early (around 8am) until 3pm.  However we encourage shooters to be there no later than 10am or earlier if it is their first visit.

“Beautiful surroundings and a great hobby.  The best way to spend Sunday mornings!”
