    HI Joe, and welcome

    Just to reiterate what 'Alan' had posted about "Meon Valley Airgun Club", we have quite a few senior statesmen amongst our ranks and there is quite a mix of different air rifles and pistol's used, from very old to very modern.

    Our members are spread across Hampshire and quite a few are very local to you.

    We have a club house with a 33y indoor range and we are in the middle of building a 55y outdoor range, we are also very fortunate to have two woods that we use to shoot HFT & FT in, Hen Woods we use almost every Sunday throughout the year and Wallop woods is used Wednesday evenings during the summer.

    More details can be found on our web page www.mvac.co.uk

    If you are more interested in bench rest and 10m shooting then you are in luck as there are a number of clubs very local to you.

    Just a few for you to take a look at

    Great fun shooting in you back garden but, a lot more fun can be had when shooting with like minded shooters and with your years of experience, it would be a shame not to share that wisdom with others

    Thanks for that Mike, It's been twenty years since I belonged to a shooting club where I was deputy captain, and a NRA qualified RCO,
    it's a bit daunting thinking about joining a club after all that time, but I'll give it some thought.

    A club map is here

    There's some paper punching clubs and all sorts on there.

    Hi Joe,

    Maybe Meon could be just what you need, Wednesday nights is club night, very relaxed and easy going, you don't even need to shoot, sometimes is nice just to sit and chat, everything is at your pace.

    You are more than welcome to come along and have a look see and get a feel for the place.

    If you go on our web page there is a link to our excellent Book page (you don't need to join FB to read the page) where you will get to see what we get up to

    if you need anymore info just ask away, I'm more than happy to help.
