Pistol Range

The Rifle & Pistol Ranges are owned by Sublette County and managed by a committe from the Pinedale Rifle & Pistol Club.

The Pinedale Rifle & Pistol Club is a non-profit organization.

Shooting hours: 8 AM to Sunset


FUTURE PLANS

The Rifle & Pistol Club is in the process of trying to improve the facilities at the current shooting range. Our goal is to Eventually, shelters will be built over the shooting tables.provide a safe environment for rifle and pistol shooting for the general public of Pinedale and the surrounding area. The range will also be used to provide a safe environment for training youth of the area that are required to take and pass the Hunter Safety requirements and obtain a valid Hunter Safety Certificate that is required by the Wyoming Game & Fish Department prior to hunting with a firearm in the State of Wyoming and any other related shooting programs.

Plans include:

  • The rifle range will be 100-feet wide and have 100, 200 and 300 yard capabilities and will accommodate 6-shooters on the firing line. Six benches will be installed inside a canopy covering the firing line enclosed on 3-sides.
  • A 20-foot high dirt backstop will be constructed at the 300-yard line target area for safety. The backstop will be 100-feet wide with additional side berms extending 25 feet towards the firing line for additional safety. (Forming a U)
  • Target frames can be placed at various locations of 25, 50, 100, 200 and 300 yards depending on the type of shooting being done. The target frames will be 4-foot square with 8-foot legs (made of steel rods) and set in plastic pipe buried two feet in the ground at the distances listed above and be removable to facilitate the type of shooting being done.
  • The pistol range will have a 20-foot high backstop shaped like a U and will accommodate 6-shooters at one time with 6-target frames set at 25 yards. The target frames will be 2 x 3 with 6-foot legs (made of steel rods) and plastic pipe buried in the ground to hold the target frames. The firing line will consist of several tables made of a 2x6s with legs buried in the ground to accommodate the shooters pistol and ammunition until a canopy can be installed at a later date. At a later date, firing lanes will be set at 25 yards (in front or inside the canopy) and at 15, 10 and 7 yards. This will be a course of fire similar to what the Sheriff's Department practices at.
  • We will be holding sight-in days for the general public and out-of-state hunters prior to the opening of the hunting seasons. Dates and times will be posted at the Range and in the local news papers.
Shooting hours: 8 am - Sunset
