ABRC - Armadale Byford Rifle Club

27/08/2024

Members and visitors.

The Armadale Byford Rifle Club has temporally suspended shooting activities at the Pickering Brook Range.

For most shooting ranges safety templates require review and re-survey from time to time to ensure the highest possible standard of safety. This process is currently underway and we expect to provide an update in the near future.

The range has a long history as a safe shooting venue extending back to 1942 and we anticipate that the survey, review and any resulting capital works will ensure the future of safe shooting on the range for many years to come.
