Student use of the Rifle Range

Students are invited to use the rifle range facilities during open range time only when there is a Range Safety Officer (RSO) present.  Any student that wishes to join the team must complete required paperwork for Club sports participation as well as complete a range safety training and quiz before they will be permitted to shoot.  We have open shooting times using small bore .22 cal rifles and .177 cal air rifles.  A step-by-step guide to be allowed access is below.  Students join for the semester or full year.  Team and ROTC practices only on the rifle range, there is no open walk in range access.
