The
GB 300m Rifle Club is based at Bisley, on Century Range. It is, as the
name suggests, dedicated to ISSF 300m rifle shooting in prone and 3
positional disciplines. The Club has installed for its members benefit, ten lanes of KME
electronic targets. Shooting
is from a covered (indoor) firing point, each shooter having a monitor
which displays their live scores. There
are regular competitions including BFRC, NRA, visits from overseas teams
and Club Championships. The Club is the “feeder” for the 300m National Squad. The squad trains on the range so you can come and learn from some of the top 300m shooters in Europe. For the past few years we have members ranked in the top twenty in Europe in their
respective disciplines. You can use any calibre of rifle up to 8mm but to progress you really need a dedicated 300m rifle chambered for 6mm ammunition. Many
of the National Squad use Grunig, Bleiker or Keppeler rifles. Usually we
can put our .22 action into the same stock which means that we can train
.22 for 300m. The
course of fire is the same for both 300m and .22 ISSF so it makes sense to
keep the rifles as close to the same specifications as possible. The 300m season starts in March and continues through to October. We meet at weekends on Century Range. We are a friendly Club. Check out the shooting dates on the site and
come to see 300m in action. You will be most welcome. Club membership benefits include :-
