Our rifle range has backstops at 25, 50, 75, 100 and 200 yards. There is also an adjacent pistol range, out to 10 yards. As for all of our facilities, membership is required to participate. We ask that you please pick up your empties, and be sure to check that no live ammunition has fallen to the ground. There is a box on the rifle range for your empty brass, and a tube to put any dud rounds into. Duds are rounds that for some reason did not fire. To read about our range safety rules, see the note below.
There is a new policy for the pistol and rifle range. Due to safety concerns, and respect for the neighbors who border our property, shooting hours from 8 am until 1/2 hour before sunset will now be enforced. In order for us to best serve our members and the general public, please adhere to these hours. Failure to do so could result in the forfeiture of your membership. Thank you for your cooperation.
Please have your membership card with you when you use the ranges.

Every Tuesday after 2 pm beginning April 23 until Sept. 10 for adult trap leagues.
June 22 from 8 until 4
July 20 from 8 until 4

Appleseed Rifle Shoot Event – September 28 & 29
The next Appleseed shoot will be held at our club on September 28 & 29. This is a marksmanship clinic, and is designed to make anyone (especially the young and beginner shooters) a better rifle shot through enhanced shooting techniques. And for the experienced shooters, this is a chance for you to earn your Rifleman’s Patch. It’s a lot harder to qualify for the rifleman patch than you might think! Instruction is provided by trained range officers. Shooting will occur from the 3 common shooting positions, prone, sitting and free hand. Expect to shoot more than 300 rounds over two days, so the .22 long rifle is the preferred cartridge. During breaks in the action, they will tell you the true story of the earliest days of our nation, including the events of April 19, 1775, “the shot heard around the world.” You may be surprised by some of the details you may not have learned in your history class at school.
For more information about the event and costs, please go to their website, appleseedinfo.org. Or you can contact club member and event organizer Dan Dretske at (608) 317-1933.
