Club Range

Range Calendar

Branch shooting competitions are held monthly on our range and the shoots are designed to assist hunters in marksmanship skills. These branch shoots are on the Sunday following the third Wednesday of each month at our Kaitoke range. The morning shoots usually start at 9am, with afternoon shoots starting at 1pm. Organised club shoots are held most weekends, mainly on the Sunday. However, to avoid getting to the range on a Saturday only to find that there is a club shoot in progress, check the Range Calendar which is listed in the monthly Tararua Rag. The Kaitoke Pistol Club runs casual shoots at the range every Tuesday night from 6 pm, during daylight saving. Visitors are welcome.
We also have organised long-range shoots at 300 & 500 yards. The timing of these shoots will allow rifles to be checked before the holiday break & before the roar, so you can be set up for those longer shots. Check the Tararua Rag for dates and times.

Range with covered bench rest area

The branch has a rifle range with covered benchrest facilities in the Rimutaka Incline recreation area. The range is built to modern standards and provides shooting up to 200m. Members are entitled to lease a key to the main car park gate, which enables driving to the range. Members may use the range during the week as well as weekends, but the range is not available for public use. However approved shooting organisations may hire out the range for their own use.
Please note that the range certification restricts centrefire rifles to a maximum calibre of .300 Win magnum.
