Bob Jr. Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 Now that the better weather is just ahead of us, I'd sure like to know where I could site in my new rifle scope. I've been around this area of Crystal Beach for 4 years and have yet to find a spot for sighting in. Bob Jr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishingking Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 Try silverdale gun club smerchly and Bob Jr. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genec Posted February 6, 2022 Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 I think they are members only now - don’t think they are allowing non-members on weekends like they used to. Bob Jr. and fishingking 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmcclem Posted February 6, 2022 Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 If you get a chance go to the Crowland gun club on the outskirts of Welland. They are usually there on Sundays and ask for Ed and he will be able to help you out. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to go there with a buddy who was a member , many years ago . I believe the long gun range was 110 yds (100 meters) . There was another place nearby, owned by Mr.Miller who was a general foreman at GM . It was great way to spend a few hours talking to all the shooters including the black powder guys .

genec Posted February 7, 2022 Report Share Posted February 7, 2022 Bill, you are thinking of the Niagara Regional 110yd range next to Silverdale. Millers own Silverdale, and they have ranges out to 200 yards. I used to be a member there until they decided to double the membership fee, then I quit there. I belong to the Dunnville District Hunters & Anglers now - great club and much cheaper yearly fees! They have a 20 yd restricted range, a 50 and 100 yd ranges, a trap range, and 3-D archery shoots in the summer. They also run a walleye hatchery every year, and have perch dinners at the club. verado 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smerchly Posted February 7, 2022 Report Share Posted February 7, 2022 Thanks Gene , I got that mixed up (brain farts getting more common ) I went there with my buddy Stan Duke . You may remember him if the timing is right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genec Posted February 7, 2022 Report Share Posted February 7, 2022 Not a name I know Bill. But then I just used to hit the ranges early in the mornings so I could have them to myself for quiet shooting times. Much easier to concentrate on accuracy when no one else is there! smerchly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
410001661 Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 Most gun ranges went members only during the pandemic - mostly due to the increase of non-members getting out and using the facilities. I loved shooting at Galt but cannot justify BRRC, HGC and Galt membership Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
