Derby Rifle and Pistol Club 1999 has spent a large amount of time and money developing the complex at Twyford and as a result we think that it is one of the best ranges in the country, although we may not have the longest range about, the combination of facilities makes it very appealing to many types of shooter.

The main part of the complex is a secure brick build clubhouse with 16 internal firing points also there are full kitchen and dining facilities along with a comfortable lounge. There are male, female and disabled toilets and the range is wheelchair friendly having no steps or ramps to hinder access.

As you can see the A range (25m) is floodlit for evening sessions,



The firing point has recently been refurbished with a new ceiling and lighting. Also infra-red heaters have been installed for added comfort.



Turning targets were installed during 2009, and there are static targets also at 25m.



The lounge has plenty of seating and the large double glazed window looks out onto the firing points




In the fully equipped kitchen, tea and coffee are available at a small charge.
As an addition to the catering facilities there is also a large gas fired barbecue for outdoor use.




The club dining room also doubles up as the committee meeting room and as with the lounge the windows look out over the firing points.

The clubhouse also has a large target board storage room and numerous lockers are available for hire at a small charge.

DRPC 1999's latest development is the new 50 metre B range, and consists of 5 firing points and is fitted with a brand new state of the art set of electronic turning targets, also barricade sockets have been fitted at 50 & 25 metres to allow for LBR shooters.

   

Now completed it is a great addition to the current facilities. Being a fully independent walk forward range it can be used for many disciplines.


Our main range, the C range consists of 12 firing points at 50m 12 at 100 and 8 at 200 (actually 187yds due to the Twyford brook ) there are shooting benches at each distance and the 200 point has a raised all weather platform a full set of turning targets are fitted to complete the setup.
