Calgary and area range help?

[Canuck Bob]

I am looking to join a range for rifle shooting. 100m and hopefully a little more.

I shoot lever actions, 32-20, 32 Special, 444 Marlin. I also shoot one milsurp, Lee Enfield No.5.

I searched but there is a lot of sad news regarding ranges and many seem full.

Are there any ranges within 50-60 kms accepting new members?

There is a public range at homestead that is free and no membership is required. It is currently closed for renovatios and will open end of August-ish.

CSRA is always accepting new members. PM for more info. We shoot at the 900m homstead range. The issue with this range is that it is specialized to a few different styles of shooting and is not friendly for those just going to sight in rifles or plinking. There are no benches, just berms so you're shooting from prone.

It's a damn shame olds closed. Great range for sighting in or doing load development. I miss it so much.

thanks Sillyak,

I am looking to join some clubs and associations. I'm a firm believer in financial support for such so free isn't a requirement. I also like to shoot a lot and my job allows me to schedule time on the off hours.
