Hi!

"Weclome" to the mad house! :shakeshout:

"Offas" refers to Offas Dyke Rifle Club, see the link here : http://www.offasrifleclub.com/

Hello Charlotte thanks for your reply much appreciated. sign92

I have been researching the Brecon club online and it’s rather confusing but is this Offas club part of the Brecon club? I have heard the Brecon club shoots there but I’m not sure if that is their dedicated range?

Thanks for your reply its rather difficult to look up some places online as they don’t seem to post many things.

I'm not familiar with the Brecon club. Offas use Sennybridge along with other UK ranges across the country.

Thanks

Charlotte

Ok thanks very much for your reply Charlotte.

Last question I have had a look at this Offas club is it all outside? It would be rather horrible shooting with the weather we have at the beginning of 2014 :bad:

Anyway thanks for your help much appreciated. sign92

Yes it's all outdoor shooting but there is a nice warm shelter for when it snows. They also run semi-regular range safety & reloading courses that are classroom based. I've learnt a lot with them since starting out a few years back.

Joe, Brecon Rifle club maybe worth a shout, they to my understanding have a smallbore range and also organise a shoot in the Sennybridge training camp once a month, another shout would be the Invitation and Crown House Armoury Club, the shoot at the Severnside range next to Rogiet Moor and Sennybridge.
