I was wondering if there was a way to find some place to go plinking nearish town as in less than an hr drive away I would love take the wife out for the first time with my .22lr and she is very intimidated by the idea of going to a range her first time as well all the ranges close to me dont allow guests as far as I know but I havent check with SGAF yet but I still have to go there to check out membership stuff.
regards dave from winnipeg

Hi everybody! I'm new to the group, from the Dauphin area. I am very interested in doing some long range shooting if there is anyone willing to help me out. Like most hunters, I imagine, my 300 yd and under game is good, but I have a new, much more capable rifle now and am very interested in exploring its, and my outer limits. Finding a place to shoot 800 - 1000 yds with a safe back stop or the likes is herder than I imagined. Any one know what the facilities are like at the Brandon range? Or any where close to Dauphin?
Nothing in the Brandon area to shoot past 200M unless you come out to the Shilo Battle of the Bulge shoot in late Nov/early Dec, which is usually on King OP in Shilo. 3000M is possible there if you are capable....

Gunasaurus, what's the story on the Shilo Battle of the Bulge shoot? Open to the public? What kind of format do they follow? 3000M??? I might feel a little under endowed with a .300...Love to give 'er a try at half that though! And a chance to see anyone firing something at that kinda distance! I'd love to hear more about it.
It is a milsurp shoot that the Shilo Gun Club sets up, and it isw open to the public. We usually set it up to 400M maximum, but the range it is set up on (military field firing range) is capable of handling 25mm from the LAV III. You can see out to 4000M, so if you had a rifle capable of that distance, technically, you could shoot it there. Watch the MB Events post for info on it in Oct/Nov timeframe. We've had guys with .50's (bolt guns of course) there in the past.

You can find a lot of info on the Winnipeg Revolver & Pistol Assoc. Web site at

You can also get your CFSC and CRFSC there.

I always end up there shooting alone at -30c this last winter.... get my car stuck in that bloody sheet of ice they call a road.
