What is smallbore rifle shooting?
As Don Brook eloquently puts it: Smallbore Rifle Shooting is "The exacting sport".
​
It is enjoyed by many throughout the world - male, female, able bodied and disabled from age 12 to 92!
​
We use .22 or 5.6mm rimfire ammunition.
There is very small recoil​ not like you imagine :-)
​
​
Our club rifles look a bit like this:

​
At Swiss and most smalbore target rifle clubs in NSW, the target is 50m away, and the bullseye (which is all we aim for) is 10.4mm
​
We also offer Smallbore Benchrest disciplines. Originally introduced for older and infirm shooters, it has become a discipline in its own right at local and international levels. Here you are seated at a bench, and most people have telescopic sights...unlike in prone where iron sights are used.
​
​
​
We generally offer "Try Shooting" to allow you to learn about and try the sport on the last Sunday of each month, commencing at about 1100. We will give you a safety briefing, loan you a club rifle, and give you 1:1 coaching for 25 shots. All this for a mere $50.
​
If you would like to try the sport, please use the contact form below....We look forward to meeting you.
