The Clubhouse
The PSC Clubhouse contains a large meeting room / classroom with tables and chairs for up to 49 people. Adjacent kitchen facilities and bathrooms make this facility ideal for year-round meetings and training. The Clubhouse is available to members 24×7.
Harvey Ring Indoor Shooting Range
Originally constructed and named for Harvey Ring, a Club President who died unexpectedly, PSC is proud to have a 50 foot, indoor, heated shooting range that has 7 stations and is used for Pistols and .22 caliber rifles. There is an adjacent “Ready Area” and Small Meeting Room.
The range is open 24×7 for individuals to shoot except when scheduled events on the Calendar.
The firing positions are open for all calibers of handguns. (no magnums, no wad cutters)
This Range was extensively renovated in 2010, and is heated for wintertime use, has adjustable lighting at each shooting station and is used for “all weather” training classes. Use of exterior doors to separate the ready room from the unheated range space, provides an easy status of the range to the Range Officer as doors cannot be closed if a shooter is present at the firing line. When open they serve as dividers between shooters.
The glass in the doors provides an easy way for all present in the ready room to see activities downrange.
The range has 7 shooting position each equipped standing height target backers as well as prone backers. Shooters affix targets to the wooden slats with staples for full range of adjustable positions.
Typical Shooting Position showing table in position for Pistol Shooting. Table is hinged for easy access to prone, sitting, standing positions for small bore rifle. Firing line is marked at 50 feet.
The 50 foot and 25 yard outdoor pistol range is open all year and has a wood stove heated structure with 5 shooting stations indoors and two outdoor shooting benches. The Pistol Range building was rebuilt in 2020.
The outdoor pistol range is enhanced with a steel plate rack, steel dueling tree, steel gongs and other reactive targets allowing feedback and practice for all calibers of handguns.
Fixed target backers are located at 50 feet and 25 yards, and the range is equipped with numerous portable target stands.
The Outdoor Pistol Range is open from 9:00 am to Sunset each day.
Outdoor Rifle Ranges
There are two outdoor rifle ranges that are open all year. There are enclosed firing positions at 100 and 180 yards. The 100 yard range has a heated (wood stove) building with 5 shooting stations. The 180 yard enclosure is not heated. In addition, the 100 yard range has 2 outdoor concrete bench-rest shooting positions. If a shorter distance is desired, targets may be placed at the 35, 50, and 75 yard target berms. In 2017 the Outdoor Rifle House was reconstructed.
The Outdoor Rifle Range is open from 9:00 am to Sunset each day.
Trap Shooting Fields
There are two Trap Fields that conform to the Amateur Trapshooting Association (ATA) regulations. Both of these fields have Canterbury voice activated target release systems and an enclosed scorer’s house. We conduct ATA Registered shooting events each year, as well as informal practice sessions, see the Calendar page for dates and times.
"Peterborough Clays" Field
Several dedicated Club members have worked to transform our Skeet/Trap Field #1 into a Sporting Clays/5-Stand shooting venue. We have added multiple automatic throwing machines to the Skeet & Trap field. We can now throw enough unique birds to challenge even seasoned shooters.
Sporting Clays is held on Saturday Morning 9:00am to 1:00pm, year-round. Check Calendar for updates.
Bring a shotgun, a couple of boxes shot shells, ear & eye protection and a desire to have fun. New Shooters are always welcome.
