Activities
The Group, which will be using a .177 Air Gun, will cater for up to 18 members
We would start with members shooting pre-charged rifles from a sitting position and progress according to ability to shooting in a standing position
Members will get the opportunity to shoot pre-charged air pistols and also an opportunity to shoot in a prone position when they feel comfortable with the shooting range and technique
Different types of targets will be used from standard card targets to knock down targets
All members will need to follow the Range Safety Rules at all times, and everyone will need an introductory briefing. It is proposed to run the briefing at the start of each session so members will need to be present at the start
Members may be asked to assist in the setting up or taking down of the range
Members could bring their own air guns providing they are .177 calibre, and they would need to be checked by Craig before being used
