Dorking & District Rifle Club

The Dorking & District Rifle Club is amongst the oldest in Great Britain, having been Inaugurated on 22nd October 1900. The Club supports both full-bore and small-bore rifle shooting (at Bookham Rifle Club) and is rare in having its own four point 600 yard outdoor range. This caters for full-bore rifle shooting at 200, 300, 500 and 600 yards.

Full-bore rifle shooting takes place at Boar Hill, approximately 2 miles south of Dorking on the Coldharbour Road. Boar Hill is noted for its muddy patches, several streams rising on the hillside, the steepness of the climb to the targets, about 100 ft. above the 600 yard firing point level, and the interesting variations in the terrain due to sharing part of the range with cattle and pheasants. In spite of these idiosyncrasies it is a friendly and unique location.
