Welcome!
Our facilities include five approved pistol ranges for air, rimfire and centrefire pistols. This allows for numerous types of pistol shooting events at distances from seven metres to 50 metres.
Competitions are run on a weekly basis and include such comps as Standard Pistol (22cal), 50m Service Match (which starts with the pistol in the holster), 25 m Service Match, Center Fire Match, Center Fire Rapid Match and International 1920 (includes moving targets and falling steel plates).
Club members have free access to over sixty pistols in various calibers, which can be used for practice or competition. Both rim-fire and center-fire pistols up to .38 caliber may be used on the ranges, so long as the power factor does not exceed 180000 (Projectile Weight in Grains x Velocity in feet/second). As with most other pistol ranges, no factory magnum loads or full metal jacket ammunition is permitted, however we do permit the use of semi jacketed ammunition on certain ranges.
No such restrictions apply to our Eagle Park (Little River) Pistol ranges, where our Handgun Metalic Silhouette Matches (out to 200 metres) are held monthly (Metallic Silhouette).
The Club is also affiliated with IPSC for members who wish to shoot that discipline. SSPC Springvale boasts a friendly club atmosphere with a well equipped Bar and Bistro facilities where members can relax and socialise after a day’s shoot. Family participation is encouraged at all times.
If you are interested in the Sport of Pistol Shooting then why not come and visit the Club and see for yourself. We will be more than happy to meet you and talk to you about joining our Club. While you are there, try it for yourself, under the supervision of one of our Qualified Range Officers.
