Wern Ddu

Thanks to certain members we now have access to the Wern Ddu 100 yard fullbore range.

In case you didn’t read the 2026-1 newsletter –
Wern Ddu is a privately run range, and therefore NOT subject to the ream of BS which accompany shooting on MoD/RFCA ranges (This alone is a great advantage.)
It’s a 100 yard range with 10 firing points and has to be hired by the day.

Please bear with us for the first few shoots as we learn the ropes there !
