I've decided the time has come to find a Club. I shoot .22 Rifle and am in need of a plinking range but have recently
bought a .177 Webley Pistol and need a 10m/25m indoor range. Any ideas or recommendations?

Our 8 year old daughter does Tetrathlons with Pony Club, and currently practices in our back garden using an air pistol at 7 metres. I would like more regular help and advice from a club. There is a club called Trackside Airguns nearby but I dont know anything about the clubs, should I just approach them, or is there a list of things I should look for in a club? Im not asking anoyone (if they know them) to run them down or whatever, Its just I dont know anything about the Clubs.
Any advice would be greatfully received!
Im also trying to source a Tau 7 junior or if we can afford one a Steyr LP2 compact
The problem with a normal air pistol target club is they will shoot at 10 meters on a small round static target taking as long as they want, rather than at 7m (for the Minimus class) using turning targets. and a 4 Sec exposure
The pony club target is much bigger than the 10M target and may well not fit in a 10M target holder and people shooting a precision target may not want to be disturbed by a discipline which requires vocal commands.
The best thing to do is to go to a club and talk to them. There should be no problem with just turning up to an air pistol night with your daughter.

We are a club situated approximately 25 miles away from Plymouth, in Looe, Cornwall.
We are currently in the final stages of rebuilding our club as we were hit with an arson attack two years ago. However the building stage is now complete and we are having the electrics done at present with the aim of being back open again for the summer!
It's a friendly club that is open to any and all prospective members irrespective of previous experience, age, etc. We use a wide variety of arms for target shooting (once we re-open!), on our 25yd indoor range, ranging from flintlock pistol up to and including .44 Special. Fullbore rifles can be used provided that loads are downloaded in order to comply with the range lbs limit. Although we are currently unable to shoot due to the rebuilding works, we are taking on new members.
We also welcome shooters from other parts of the country who may be down on their holidays and wish to pop in to keep their eye in and have a look around. In order to do so, please contact the treasurer whose details are on the website in order for us to accomodate you.
Please feel free to drop in and have a mosey around our website here (I know it's not the most professional in the world but it's the best I could put together with free web building tools!).

Looks like the line of field target clubs stops at York, that's a shame, I'd have like to have had a look and see the difference between archery field target and air gun field target had there been any in the North East.
