The Wellsford Rifle Range

The Wellsford Rifle Range is one of Victorias premier rifle ranges with shooing options from 100 metres out to 1000 yards. Wellsford hosts a number of prize meetings and major competitions including the Symes and the Kings.

There is a separate 100 meter range for zeroing and load development. Currently there is 300y, 400y, 500y, 600y, 700y, 800y, 900y and 1000y firing mounds shooting on electronic targets and rubber gongs depending on designated club days.

Plans are in motion for a separate 300 meter range in the near future which will be available to use simultaneously with the main range.

Book your spot on the 100m range

Need to zero your rifle... or have load dev to do?

Bookings are now available for the 100m range at Wellsford Rifle Range on each range day. Shooters can reserve one of six lanes at either 9:30am or 10:00am. Only available time slots are shown.

Each booking is for a 30-minute time slot. This includes 5 minutes at the start to set up, 20 minutes of shooting time, and 5 minutes to pack up and clear the lane.

The standard range fee still applies and is payable on the day by cash or card. Please note that if you book a time slot and do not attend, you will still be expected to pay for your allocated slot, as the lane has been reserved exclusively for you.

Bookings help ensure smooth range operations and fair access for all shooters.

My wife & I went down to have a go at the range with CVRC. As complete novices, we were unsure what to expect. The day was fantastic! The crew at CVRC were welcoming and extremely helpful. We had a blast and learnt so much. We became members and get down when we can. Certainly recommend CVRC!!

As a new member of the Central Victorian Rifle Club (CVRC) and also new to long range sport shooting. I definitely landed in the right place. I was warmly welcomed into a great friendly atmosphere where everyone is incredibly helpful to ensure everyone is enjoying the sport as well as achieving goals through participation. My subsequent visits enabled me to see that the club places a strong emphasis on safety, discipline, and responsible firearm ownership and handling. There is a great depth of knowledge and undeniable expertise with CVRC with many members regularly attending competitions both locally and nationally. They bring this wealth of experience back and impart this into new members to rapidly progress their skill set and education. Whether it is competition, hunting, or recreational. There is a place for everyone at CVRC to hone their skills and competency. The range facilities are well maintained, and the onsite supplies shop is fantastic. I appreciate the club’s structured approach to training, adherence to rules, and commitment to fostering skill development at all levels. I am pleased to be a member of the club and look forward to developing my long-range shooting skills while contributing positively to the club and the wider shooting community.
