Yes that’s the one. Now a gallery, practical shotgun and clay club.

Is it under new management or the original husband and wife, I forget their names now as it is many years since I shot there.

Yes new management. Couple of really nice guys called Steve and Rob.

I don’t really know much about it prior to them - but I believe it was run by the parents of my next door but one neighbours.

I had a look at their website, £100-275 membership fee + £25 per visit :o

Not sure far you are from Oundle but we pay £180 per year as an individual member and no visit fees. Outdoor ranges at 25, 50M and 100yards. 100 is rated up to 30cal +.

Both of which are over 50 miles away from me, whereas Springview is 5 minutes away.

I don’t mind the cost as I’m used to paying £13/hr for the local air rifle range so £25 for a whole day seems reasonable. Plus it’s a really nice vibe there.
