Looking for a Long Range in Winnipeg

[idbltap]

Looking to see if there are any good long distance ranges in Winnipeg.

 

[Nug]

St Charles - Its a DND range out to 900 or 1000 yds if you want to use it you have to go through the MPRA.

Selkirk Game & Fish - Out to 200 yds.

White Wolf Range - I believe they have a Range out to 300yds.

You can come out and try a couple of times for free, it is getting late in the shooting season for long range locally as we run out of evening light early however someone should be out there Wednesday for 6pm. Saskatchewan Ave. is closed at the perimeter now so access is off Portage avenue, you turn right at the tims just outside the perimeter and go north past the west side of the race track and turn left on Sask. ave. there are signs that lead into the range and anyone there will be more than willing to help you out.

You can contact someone at the Manitoba Provincial Rifle Association if you are interested in shooting at St. Charles Range. The website is manitobarifle.com

What about pistol?

Seven Sisters Game and Fish will get you out to 500m, heck of a lot better than the 185 yard option.

White Wolf Range-300 yards for rifle and a max of 75 for pistol

Seven Sisters has a 540+yard rifle range and a small 36 yard psitol bay.

Virden Range has five pistol bays and a 300 yard rifle range- only downfall is a 3hr drive

Selkirk Range-pistol bay pic-

St Charles Range is up to 1000yards but no pistol and no showing up on your own
Pics from the 300 yard line

And a few random areas near Winnipeg
<3hrs for shooting-1025 yards Public land

<1.5 hrs from Winnipeg-180 yards gravel pit

I'm sick at home so I had lots of time to flick through the photobucket account. Hope it helps. I think the White Wolf range is a great all around deal and the Seven Sisters Range is sweet for distance shooting. Virden is a wonderful range but is 3 hrs from Winnipeg.

We don't generally have to plant mines in our rifle ranges out west, but I have thought about IED's for the guys that commit vandalism.

Only the members get told where the mines are That pic is from one of the five pistol bays during a fun competition which required crawling under the wire and all sorts of fun.
