1760 Long Distance Shooting
RANGES
Bisley Shooting Ground is our main club venue, chosen for its excellent facilities and wide variety of ranges. It allows us to shoot distances from 100 out to 1,200 yards.
Chobham Ridge is ideal for validating and refining DOPE calculations, offering distances out to 1,400 yards.
For extreme long-range work, Orion Firearms in Wales and East Cornwall Sporting are regular destinations, where we conduct regular 1-mile shoots throughout the year.
1760
1760 is a rapidly growing long-distance shooting club based in the UK, with members drawn from across the UK and Europe. The club was founded by like-minded shooters who share a passion for the challenge and precision of extended-range shooting, and we meet regularly at Bisley.
We operate as a subsidiary of the Wey Valley Rifle and Pistol Club. Through our affiliation with WVRPC, we are Home Office and NRA approved.
Come rain or snow, we shoot throughout the winter months.
MEMBERSHIP
If you’re interested in joining a club with knowledgeable and enthusiastic members, we’d be delighted to hear from you. As part of WVRPC, members benefit from weekly meetings at Bisley, shooting at a variety of distances, all included within the membership fee. We are also affiliated with the LMRA, giving access to their facilities.
In addition, 1760 organises regular long-range target days, Chobham Ridge shoots, and visits to Orion in Wales, where members can shoot out to one mile.
