Service Description

Further Details, Maps etc. are provided in the Range Officer Safety Brief and Forestry Permit. Once you have completed these then you can 'sign-in' to the property using this booking form, which prevents the Shooting range from being booked into and by Lowering the Range 1 safety flag no one else will be shooting. PVRanges operating hours are usually 8am-7pm Monday - Saturday - Pest Management on adjoining properties usually happens outside of these hours but can concur within these hours for members. Suppressors are not required but if within 200m of a dwelling, consider one. Shooting in the dark is permitted and the use of thermals and night vision is encouraged as this is all private property, although if you Access the DOC property from our boundary then you will need to follow their permit requirements. All firearms are expected to be in safe-working orders, if at any time you need to confirm zero/data/adhoc sight-in then the targets around PVRange can be used when the angles meet the FSA requirements noted in the Range Safety Brief. Confirm your device has access to the wifi, take the range handheld radio with you. All animals shot must be recorded for PVRetreat's Pest Management records - please send them through the discord chat.
