ACSC Rifle Range Information

A big thank you to all who came out and helped finish the 300 yard berm on Saturday. The 300 yard target boards were installed and are now ready to use. Remember, the rifle range and silhouette range are treated as one. Make sure you coordinate with everyone else before going down range to place targets. We have installed alarm lights and buzzer to make it easier to notify people on the silhouette range of your intentions. If the lights and buzzer go off on the rifle range check with the people on silhouette range before shooting and as always, if you see the red flag flying then it means that someone is working down range.

There are two special work days scheduled to clean up rocks on the face of the new 300 yard Rifle Range berm to allow for target stand installation. These dates are scheduled for April 10th and 11th from 9:00 am until 5:00 pm. If all of the berm work is completed on Saturday the 10th the work day on the 11th will target other maintenance issues around the club. If you would like to join in with the berm clean-up and club maintenance please bring a pair of gloves. Lunch will be provided. For more information and updates continue to check this website or speak with a Club Officer, Director or Range Officer.

We are currently in the process of upgrading and improving our rifle range. The expansion to eight firing lanes is complete and a new cover has been installed. The old target berms located at 25, 50, 100 and 200 yards have been repaired and a new target berm has been added at 300 yards.

. Members only except for scheduled open events.
. The rifle range will be closed during silhouette matches for safety.
. The silhouette range always operates in conjunction with rifle range.
. Make sure silhouette range is clear before shooting or going down-range.
. Do not shoot at silhouette targets from the rifle range.
. Be careful not to shoot over the berms - bullets travel a long way.
. Keep firearms pointed in a safe direction at all times.
. Remove your targets and police the area when finished shooting.
. Eye and ear protection are required.

Note: If you wish to pattern your shotgun on rifle range, bring your own target & target stand and fire from firing line only. Target to be offset from existing fixed targets to prevent destruction of target stands.

The current RangeMaster is Keith Peach.

If you wish, the NRA will maintain a history of your shooting scores. These scores allow you to better judge your progress as a shooter and are useful if you plan on shooting at the regional / state / national levels.

To report these scores to the NRA, you must have either an "Approved" or a "Sanctioned" match. This means that you must follow certain rules that the NRA sets for the operation of matches and all competitors must fire a designated "course of fire".

At all "NRA Approved" matches, the following course of fire will be used:
Stage #1
Standing - Slow Fire - 10 Rounds - 200 Yards - SR Target
Stage #2
Standing to Kneeling - Slow Fire - 10 Rounds - 200 Yards - SR Target
Stage #3
Standing to Prone - Rapid Fire - 10 Rounds - 300 Yards - SR3 Target
Stage #4
Prone - Slow Fire - 20 Rounds - 300 Yards - MR63 Target
