Camp Perry Air Gun Range Open For Public Shooting .  Shooters, including aspiring new shooters, who live in the Camp Perry, Ohio area are invited to take advantage of a new opportunity to do practice shoot­ing on Tuesday evenings at the Camp Perry Marksmanship Center air gun range.  The Camp Perry 80-point 10-meter air gun range is fully equipped with electronic targets that accommodate air rifle, air pistol or National Match Air Rifle shooting.   The Ottawa County 4-H Shooting Sports Club uses one-half of the range every Tuesday evening for junior three-position air rifle shooting.  School-age juniors are welcome to join this group.  The range will now open for public air rifle and air pistol shooting by adults start­ing on Tuesday, 24 February.  The range is open from 5:30 PM until 8:00 PM every Tuesday evening.  All shooters who use the range must complete a CMP Eligibility Affidavit and Liability Waiver (one-time only) and attend a short safety briefing.  Depending upon staff availability, arrangements can be made to provide instruction to new shooters.  The cost for adult shooting at the Marksmanship Center is $5.00 per day, it is $2.00 per day for juniors (high school aged).  Shooters may bring their own air rifles or air pistols (must be .177 cal. with muzzle velocities of 600 fps or less).  Sporter class air rifles (Daisy M853) are available as loaners at the range.  Shooters should supply their own pellets or may purchase them at the range.  In order to facilitate range staff planning, anyone who would like to shoot on Tuesday evenings is requested to send an email message to vdonoho@odcmp.com stating when you would like to come to the range.
