NEW Full-Bore INDOOR 100m Range - Livingston - PHOTO'S

#1 Post by saddler »

In the planning stages it was to be rated up to .50-BMG
Not sure what the range certificate says, but the range is rated as full-bore rifle.

There are 6 lanes, each with a individually controlled target.
This can be set at any distance from 25m to 100m in 25m increments.
Once set to travel to the required distance you can then fine tune the target so that it is within the area of the ceiling light.

The bay mounted CCTV then also lets you choose the quarter of the screen that relates to the distance chosen.
It further allows you to zoom in on any specific area of the target of your choice.

The main club building has an open log fire lounge, a kitchen area supplying a range of hot food & drinks & also shotgun cartridges of the clay shooters.

The range part of the facility at Morton also has it's own attached waiting area.

Last I heard the fee was £25 per hour per lane, solo use....or £30 per hour total if two share a lane.

The manager is trying to get a Section 1 club status granted by the Scottish Office.
No idea how that has worked out.

I know that Vintage Arms Scotland have block booked in the past.
Plus, I've been told that sone days are very underbooked - so they may be open to negotiation if a small group wanted 2 or three lanes.

I go here once a month with guys from my club, little bit indoor then use the clay ground aswell, it's a good set up. Infact thinking of going up next week at some point.
The owner is a nice guy, and very friendly.

Just off the phone to them

As of August 2015, they operate an Approved Rifle club

Membership £75 per year, plus £15 per hour range fee.
Open Tues-Sat

May be of interest to folk in the vicinity esp. if the unpredictable local weather has lead to too many cancellations of the more open type of range shoots, or Landmarc have bumped your booking again in favour of Pongo/Plod use, etc.

Will call in shortly to get more info & will report afterwards.
