The Range

​  Measurements

  • The centre of the target plate should be 1524mm or 5FT from the floor.

  • The face of the target plate should be 5485mm or 18FT (6 Yards) from the side of the table where the shooter will stand.

  • You need around 1500mm or 5FT approximately behind the table for shooters to move around and approach the shooting position.

  • Overall you need around 7.5m or 24FT in length for your range to be workable.

  • The width required varies depending how many targets you want to run, the minimum is around 2m.

​​

  Safety

  • The sides and back of the range should not be open or accessible.

  • The Ballistic curtain should ideally be in front of the metal target stands.

  • For people using speaker stands in front of the ballistic curtain the uprights MUST be covered with pipe lagging.

  • No one is allowed past the shooting table while the range is in use.

  • Only your RCO or a competent person instructed by your RCO should enter the range to reset the targets.

  • All guns must be on the table, unloaded and untouched whilst anyone is down range.

  • Anyone using magazine fed guns must remove the magazine from the gun when they have finished shooting.

  • Any shooter who has already loaded prior to a target needing resetting must take their shot before the targets are reset.
