The Rimfire Range is clearly marked with a large sign outlining the club rules for its use. Only rimfire rifles and pistols are permitted on the Rimfire Range. .22 Magnum and .17 are not allowed on the Plinking Pit.
Rimfire is a type of firearm cartridge called rimfire because the firing pin strikes the rim of the base. Examples include .17, .22 short, and .22 long. Rimfire cartridges are limited to low pressure calibers because they require a thin case so that the firing pin can crush the rim and ignite the primer.
You may NOT shoot any centerfire guns on the Rimfire Range or Plinking Pit. This means NO centerfire rifles, pistols, shotguns, or black powder guns. The Utility Pit (Pistol Pit #4) was constructed to accomodate all of these centerfire guns with the exception of shotguns.
BB and air guns ARE allowed on the Rimfire Range. The Plinking Pit, immediately to the right side of the Rimfire Range, is for BB, air guns and .22 short, long or long rifle ONLY.
.22 magnum and .17 rimfire weapons may be fired on the larger Rimfire Benchrest Range and also on the Centerfire Rifle Range from the bench firing line.
Shotguns may be fired ONLY on the Trap and or Skeet Ranges with the exception that you may sight-in a slug gun on the Centerfire Rifle Range.
Anyone shooting centerfire guns or shotguns on the Rimfire Range is subject to suspension or expulsion from RCGC.
Place all spent cartridge cases in the buckets provided. If you do not want yours, there are others who will be happy to get them.
