    Whangarei/Northland Range?

    I know we have a few ranges up here, anyone a member of one? I would just like somewhere to zero and practice with my hunting rifle. Cheers.

    Whangarei deer stalkers is open I think it's the first Sunday of the month, I'm a member but don't attend very often, I have had a bit of a clean out and can't find an old newsletter to get any contacts, if I find one I'll pm you but try emailing deer stalkers nz they should have a contact number. Friendly bunch of people and no dramas any time I have been there.

    i will be the Whangarei NZDA range once in the next 3-4 weeks.
    Nice guy's and always accomodating.
    22rf at 50 and sometimes 100 mtr for laughs
    100 & 200 mtrs on occasions
    Best time to go is club days as they are a little less structured than when they are running postal shoots.

    There's a dargaville long range club I think. There's a black powder range that's really cheap to join.

    That's long gone, I believe they are setting up a new range out Mangakaramea which goes out to 600 or so

    when did that range go. was sure it was out there 6-7 years back. still lots of subdivision on that hill behind the range.

    Also the Oromahoe range further north but I have not been there.

    It went about 3-4yrs ago

    I’ve been to the oromahoe range twice and it’s quite good, only 200m though
