Waitakere Sporting Rifle Club

Rifles

We use 22LR sporting rifles, which includes:

• Fixed scoped, variable scoped and open sighted rifles.
• Single shot, bolt action and semi-auto rifles.

The only restrictions in the rifles used is that no barrel mounted tube magazines,
or anything that requires reaching in front of the rifle are permitted.
Barrel mounted tube magazine rifles are permitted to be used as single shot rifles.

Ammunition

Each detail consists of 50 rounds.
Due to limitations of the range, only .22LR Target or sub-sonic (below 1200 fps) is permitted.
Ammunition for use at the range is available for sale.

Shooting Positions

We shoot unsupported from the prone, sitting, and kneeling positions.
For those who wish, or who are still learning, supported (from blocks or bipods) is permitted.

Targets

We shoot at paper targets, consisting of roundels and silihoutes.
