Thread: Te Puke Rifle Club

Some new photos posted on our webpage in gallery. We are open for three more Saturdays this season, then the range closes for the winter. If you would like to try your rifle out to 600 yards, we would like to meet you. All we ask is that you have a 100y zero before you arrive, or bring extra rounds to zero your rifle on our zero range.
Because we use Silver Mountain electronic targets which detect the shock wave of a supersonic projectile, if your bullet is not supersonic at the target, the shot will not register. This is rarely a problem at 300 & 500, but some loads do struggle at 600 yards. Generally it is the smaller varmint calibres with light projectiles, but it can also occur with heavier calibres loaded with projectiles designed for close range work with the BC of a brick.
