Sight in your old or new hunting rifle, muzzleloader, or slug gun for the coming hunting season. This event is open to the public, $1/firearm for NSSA members, $2/firearm for non-members.

Sandbags will also be available, and a limited supply of ear and eye protection on loan.
The range will be open to members for general shooting, at the above rates. Please note that access to targets may be limited at times due to the need to service sight-in targets.
If you are interested in volunteering for sight-in days, please contact Glen Beattie at volunteers@northsidesportsmen.com. Hours served may be used to reduce dues for 2020.
Sight-in days will only be cancelled due to inclement weather, particularly cold below 25F. If so, a notice will be sent out. The range will then remain open to members.

Fall Trap League starts Sept 6th
Every Fall and Spring NSSA hosts a 12-week trap league that takes place on Thursday Nights. Shooters are divided into 5 teams which compete against each other for shells, prizes, and most importantly, bragging rights at the end of the 12-weeks.
Our Fall League starts Thursday, September 6th, with a 100 bird pre-season shoot. This shoot is a great opportunity for shooters to dust off their guns and get back out on the range. Following the 100 bird shoot, shooters will be divided into the 5 even teams based on their score and known ability, and these are the teams they will shoot 50 birds each week for throughout the rest of the season.
Sign-up times are 4pm-8pm each Thursday and it costs $10 per week to shoot the league. This cost not only covers the targets each week but also the prizes and the end of the league banquet dinner that we have at the club.
Everyone is welcome, including non members, so we hope to see you out there! Please be advised that during this 12-week league shooters are not required to participate in the league and can opt to shoot practice instead, however league squads will have preference over trap availability.
Thanks,
Ron Halli
