Welcome to the Preston and District Rifle and Pistol Club website.
Originally established in 1947, Preston and District Rifle and Pistol Club has been providing shooting sports facilities to its members, both young and old, living in Preston and its surrounding areas for over 60 years.
We currently shoot at two locations: an indoor range situated next to the Preston Grasshoppers Rugby Club (off Lightfoot Lane, Fulwood) for small calibre shooting disciplines and at the Altcar Rifle Ranges (Merseyside) for fullbore shooting disciplines demanding longer distances.
The Club holds regular competitions (see right), enabling its members to engage in competetive shooting sports within an extremely safe and friendly environment.

Altcar Target Fees - Price Increase
The price to shooting Clubs to "hire a lane" at Altcar has increased by £2.00.
The Club will be doing its best to absorb this cost in the regular range fees paid prior to an Altcar shoot.

Angry about the Woolwich / Bisley Farce Regarding the 2012 Olympics Shooting Venue?
We need your help!
Write to your local M.P. about how crazy the plan is to build the Woolwich venue for 2012 and then pull it down straight after the Olympics finishes. Building the temporary venue at Woolwich will cost the tax-payer an estimated £60 million, as opposed to the alternative (more sensible) plan of improving Bisley, the home of British Shooting since 1895, at a cost of £28-30 million.
The local M.P. for South Ribble is: David Borrow M.P., Crescent House, 2-6 Sandy Lane, Leyland, Lancashire. PR25 2EB.
