    indoor air rifle ranges

    i dont know if this really goes here but seems better than any other section.

    ive been trying to find out the locations of indoor air rifle ranges because the typical welsh weather has stopped me going out for about a month (even then i was bogging when i got home) and at the moment i just wanna zero my new connect ive had for 2 months and play with aim points etc.

    i remember seeing about a few in various forums pages and im sure someone said theres one in cirencester.

    any ideas guys? ideally the closer to cardiff the better.

    NSRA website and goto the club finder. Most smallbore clubs will have an air rifle section or at least let you join in.

    lol just tried looking on there, all clubs within 30 miles are along the lines of -

    we may or may not have a range, before you are allowed to see a picture of one of the targets you must prove your have a blood connection to the royal family, turn up every other day for 3 years and pay us half your pension. after which if we like the colour of your socks we may let you join for an aditional fee :P

    the one which looked aproachable i tried to email using the one supplied on their website and hotmail told me off because it doesnt exsist lol

    Thats really poor and not something I've found at my local clubs.

    What do you Welsh have to hide? Well apart from the sheep thing

    Why not post on here the names of the clubs you are interested in and see if there are any members who could tell you about the club and arrange to meet you at the club sometime?

    We've gained a few members through the BBS.

    Swansea range

    Hi does anyone know of a shooting club 10 meter range or bell target league within a few miles of Swansea as I have just been asked to work down there for six months and want to increase my skills (lack of them) while away from home!

    Many thanks
