Manolo Dalmedo took these pictures on Saturday 7th September 2024. It shows a full house at Black Cat Air Rifle Club. As well as some regular members we had a new guest shooter who wanted to try it out.

To anyone who is not currently a member, you may visit as a guest and shoot your own sub 12 ft lb air rifle. Our day ticket rates are only £10 if using your own gun, if you wish to use a club gun we charge an additional fee of £10 which makes a day's shooting of £20 and this includes insurance cover.

Big thanks to Manilo for the pictures.

NEW RANGE

SteveP — Mon, 27 Jun 2022 18:12:21 +0000

Here at Black Cat Air Rifle Club we have been very busy the past few weeks building a new plinking range.

With a limited budget and with a helping hand from our lovely members we are now on the home straight.

The new plinking bench has been built and given a coat of paint.

All that’s need now is to finish the safety wall and it’s ready to use.

Many thanks to all our members for the helping hand over the past few weeks its much appreciated.

New to Hunter Field Target

If you are thinking of getting into air rifle shooting, you might be interested in understanding the various forms of shooting.

Black Cat Air Gun has an indoor shooting range, a bench for plinking and zeroing and a Hunter Field Target (HFT) course.

Yours truly hasn’t tried the clubs HFT course yet, but I plan to probably early in 2021. My current focus is to try a few pellet types and find out what happens to my shots over different ranges. Pellet weight and type of pellet will affect the flight and more so over a greater distance.

To give you a better introduction to HFT, I’ve found quite a nice short video. This shows you what HFT is and the sort of fun and banter you could expect at this and other clubs.

Whilst this video is aimed at people new to the sport, it’s nicely done, and even experienced people might enjoy the chat!

Cheers and best wishes
