NRA

We offer a full calendar of NRA Sanctioned Matches for F-Class, AR-Tactical, Match Rifle and Service Rifle. This includes NRA Approved, Registered and Regional Matches, as well as being host for several State Championships. We shoot on Electronic Targets (Shot Marker) which makes shooting more fun and less work.

CMP

We offer CMP Matches sanctioned by the Competitive Marksmanship Program, with a significant number of events each calendar year. We also host the State of Maine Open Rifle Championship on an annual basis and are a rotating host with other New England States for Regional Championships.

NRL .22

NRL22 (National Rimfire League .22) is a fast-growing competitive shooting sport using affordable .22 LR rifles, making precision rifle shooting accessible to all ages and skill levels, with monthly matches held at the 100 – 300 yard lines of the range featuring five stages of varied targets and positions. It’s a scaled-down version of long-range precision shooting, focusing on fun, skill development, and community with standard courses of fire (COFs) released monthly.  

Long Gong

We host a monthly match, stretching the limits of .22LR shooting! Competition using .22LR rifles to hit steel gongs at 300 yards, focusing on hitting progressively smaller targets (8″, 6″, 4″) for points within a time limit, testing wind reading and trigger control.

Precision Rifle Shooting (PRS)

We offer training opportunities at our Scarborough Range for PRS shooters looking to work on loads and get practice in on electronic targets for accuracy.  We also will have steel targets or variable sizes at 600 yards available at Open Rifle events for practice

Open Rifle and Instruction

All of our events are open to the Public, not just our members. We have several monthly Open Rifle Sessions and Fun Matches. In addition we provide one-on-one instruction to new shooters for every Rifle Game. We also offer advanced Wind & Mirage classes as well as Introductory courses in Competitive Shooting for those looking to graduate to the next level of shooting excellence and join our traveling Team Mando Panda that competes at other National/International ranges.

General Range Use & Events

Club Members may use the range for no fee when the range is not scheduled for Rifle Discipline Events (Please Check the Calendar). They must use the available wooden frame inserts with backers and provide their own paper targets. Please validate your zero’s before using the 600 yard Range.

Fees

The Event fees for NRA Registered Events is $35 per day (Juniors $25), NRA Approved Events $30 per day (Juniors $20), Open Rifle $10. Training & Educational Classes are $35.

Safety

Our range is a valuable resource to the club and the shooting community. Safety is our paramount concern. Safety starts with the shooter, their rifle and ammunition. Any safe rifle and ammunition per the official club policy is allowed on the range.

500-600 yard Lines

Members are reminded that they must hold a current NRA Rifle Classification to shoot beyond the 300 yard line or be vetted by a Rifle Committee Member. The Range has a five shot rule – you must be able to be on target in Five (5) shots at any hardline for any event. To become vetted contact the rifle committee.

Bring What you’ve got!

All of us started somewhere. Some were fortunate and started with youth programs. Some just like to plink Some like to test loads. Others just shoot for the enjoyment and pleasure and their #1 competitor is themselves.  If you have a rifle and a 100 yard zero, with our guidance we will have you shooting bulls at 600 yards in one session. 

Vetting – The Easy Way

Participation in any of our organized Open Rifle/Fun Matches or Practices observed by a Rifle Committee Member will qualify for vetting. This applies to both non-members (public participants). Newly vetted members will received a new black card.  **If you have been vetted and not received a black card, please contact us with the date and who you were vetted by so we can get your card.
