Fabulous Shooting Event!
Bournemouth Small-bore Rifle and Pistol Club
Saturday 17th January 2026
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Friends, Amis, Amigos, Amici,

We are delighted to announce the opening event of the year with the Bournemouth Small-bore Rifle & Pistol Club, who have invited Sportability for a very special afternoon Saturday 17th January.

This event will consist of shooting various .22 rim rifles with next to zero recoil and airguns.

The plan is to meet at 1.30pm for a prompt 2pm start, ending at around 5pm-ish.

It’s an dedicated indoor 25yd range with five lanes fitted with target retrieval systems with Benchrest and shooting aids. And all safety equipment will be supplied on the day. There’s a huge, fully accessible clubhouse

So, don’t worry if you have never held a gun in your hands before, you’ll be amazed at what you might achieve. It is always a day of fun and discovery. It’s not about being an expert – absolute beginners or never-evers all welcomed.

When booking, please supply your full name, home address, date and place of birth and confirm you do not have a criminal record – this is a Home Office requirement, applicable to everyone!

The full address of the Club is:-

The Heygate Vernon Range
BU Sports Campus
Chapel Gate
East Parley
Christchurch
BH23 6BL
