Eagle-Park2

The Eagle Park Range in Little River caters to all disciplines, including pistol, shotgun and large-calibre rifles. The main rifle range is open to members and the general public from 9am to 5pm Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. The main public range is certified for all calibre rifles, including 50 BMG,  to a distance of 500m. With 100 benches along its covered and concreted firing line, there is room for everyone at Eagle Park.

Shotgun shooting is also available on the main public range, with a clay target thrower set up at the end of the firing line. Members can use the thrower during normal business hours. Clays can be purchased in batches of 25 from $12.

Joining SSAA at the range will give you free range entry for that day.

PUBLIC 5-STAND

The five stand range is open on:

  • Saturdays –  10am to 4pm – Non-licensed and licensed shooters (Non-licensed shooters are welcome at the 5 Stand and Main Range any day during normal operating hours, provided they are under the direct supervision of a licensed friend or family member. The Saturday “Non-licensed” option is specifically for those who do not have a licensed shooter accompanying them—these sessions are supervised by SSAA Victoria staff).
