Target shooting is a sport, which is enjoyed by both male and female, young and old, able bodied and people with disabilities, people with good eyesight or those who have the need to wear glasses, in fact people from all walks of life.

The Cashmere Smallbore Target Shooting Club, which is located in Cashmere / Beckenham, Christchurch, and has been in operation for over 100 years.  We are affiliated members of Target Shooting New Zealand.

Our shooting range at Cashmere is a 25 yard indoor facility which caters for smallbore (.22) rim fire rifles only. Some of our members participate in a variety of target shooting sports, including…

  • 20 and 25 Yard Indoor Smallbore (.22) Shooting
  • Air Rifle Indoor Shooting
  • 50 meter outdoor Smallbore (.22) at McLeans Island

We welcome anyone wanting to try the sport. The cost for a Casual Shooter is $20.00 per target which includes 13 shots. This includes all the equipment needed, rifle , ammunition and targets and coaching. No prior experience or license is needed. We suggested a minimum age of 12 years is a good age to start. Target Shooting a very safe sport, with safety measures vigorously enforced.

Club update (March 2024)

With the low levels of COVID-19 in the community the club has now resumed normal operation. We are accepting Casual Shooters on the evening of the first Monday of each month, with the exception of April 2024 where in order to avoid a clash with Easter Monday we will be shooting a week later on the 8th of April 2024. Booking is essential as we have both limited space and time slots; please make contact via E-Mail or phone. Shooting starts at the club rooms at 7pm or 8pm depending on which group you have been assigned to.

If on the day you are feeling unwell please stay home but do make contact in order to postpone for another time.
