    Swadlincote Rifle & Pistol Club.

    They have a 10mtr indoor full electrical target range but only for .177.

    Also air can be used to .22 outdoors as well.

    Here is what you are looking for,

    Quarnford AirGunner's 2009 shoot date's.

    Please search UK & Worldwide also the Shoot Results section for the latest QA information.

    Entry on the day @ QA, no membership fee to pay.

    Beginners & Junior shooters are always welcome @ QA.

    Quarnford AirGunner's are are located off the A53 Buxton to Leek road at Axe Edge Moor http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axe_Edge_Moor on the Staffordshire Derbyshire border. Well signed on shoot day's approximately 4 miles out of Buxton, 8 miles from Leek.
    Event's are held on the 2nd and 4th Sunday of each month from March to November.
    Onsite facilities include refreshment cabin, hardstanding car parking & WC.
    The undulating sloping terrain is home to seven different course layouts, with variations available to each one a differing course is set for every shoot.
    The course can be shot FT or HFT you choose, is usually 20 targets max points 80, occasionally 25 targets max points 100. The scoring system is two shots at each target, 2 for a knockdown, 1 for a target hit, 0 if you miss. The knockdown targets with string reset have varying hole diameters and range from 7yds. to 55yds.
    Some targets are marked as standing only, some kneeling apart from these you can shoot seated, prone as you wish.
    In addition there is a zero range, practice targets & seperate pistol course.
    You will see most types of airgun used, springers ancient & modern, pcps and CO2.
    Scope settings can be adjusted if you wish as you go around the course.
