The Club The club meets every other month at an indoor 25 metre range at Hullbridge in Essex. Here we are able to use .22 rifles, underlever carbines and black powder pistols. This range is entirely covered so can be used all year. Tea making facilities and toilets are all contained within. We are able to use these facilities from 7.30pm until 10.00pm.These shoots are included in the membership fee. New members who do not already hold an FAC will be taught firearm and range safety here. They will need to successfully complete a 6 month probationary period with us after which you will be able to apply to the Police for a Firearms Certificate (FAC).

Here we use Full bore rifles of 5.56mm or 7.62 calibre and .303 (as well as others) to shoot over distances of 100 to 600 metres. 4 dates spread over the year are included in the membership fee. As a club we can book any extra dates for members as and when they are required. The club also caters for the .22 rifle shooter by booking monthly range dates at an indoor 25 metre range in Southend.
