Headley Park Rifle and Pistol Club

Action Rifle...

Action Rifle.."The Class of 2009"

Action Rifle (AKA...Mini Rifle),was introduced as a direct result of the handgun ban,and so originally many `Action Shooters` were Practical Pistol Shooters that had `Made the switch`!! rather than give up the sport. Over the last 4/5 years it has really gained in popularity. Its attraction seems to be that it appeals to all ages, also very exciting and relatively cheap in that we use .22 ammo and so you get a complete mornings shoot for about £6.00!!!



The discipline itself is based around the Scenarios and Principals that encompassed as closely as possible those of `Practical Pistol`....

So,  let`s tell you more…
Action Rifle is run on the second Sunday of the month, Range build usually starts at about 9.30am and we like to get our first round down range at 10am. We like to run at least three stages and each stage will require approximately 30 rds. So you will need to bring at least 150 rds.!! Do not worry if you have not shot this discipline before as you will be shown how. Safely and, at your speed.  The cost...£1.00!! that includes all targets And tea/coffee!! Now that can`t be bad!!

Equipment
The Rifle most of us prefer to use is the 10-22 in its various forms, which is normally topped off with a red dot type sight. You will also need at least 2x25rd magazines, and of course eye and ear protection.
