Re: hi friends
I know PTS , thats very near to my home...tollygunge club if its near lake, then thats inst too far either, bu am not sure how good that is. I will definitely try for Tollygunge club and NCRC because I hear north calcutta rifle club is beter than the one in PTS and am not aware of tollygunge..so i would definitely check that out.rraju2805 wrote:Hi, welcome To IFG.

Re: hi friends
sid04,
Welcome to IFG. I cannot help you with the shooting club.Our members from your region should be of help. If you wish to pursue shooting sports, you may like to consider which discipline appeals to you the most as there are quite a few like air rifle/pistol, shotguns-trap,double trap,skeet, rifle-big bore, small bore etc.
All the very best with your efforts.
Best-
Vikram

I am going to join one of the clubs in kolkata next week. On choosing the sport I think air rrifle 10 mtrs and 50M Rifle Prone appeals to me the most..I am not sure how good the facilities are available within my reach...I am yet not very strong financially thus I have to choose my options after keeping this in my mind.

Re: hi friends
Hi Guys,
just joined the 'North Calcuta Rifle Club' in Kolkata. Thanks for the support an dthe information provided by you guys, especialy saptarshi (man it was great to meet u there, thanks). The range is very active with lot of shooters, both young and old. And the best part was fine coaching by experienced coaches outthere. I think after a long time I am at the right place to start off my shooting career. hope to learn more and ...just cant wait to test my skills in a proper shooting range for the first time.
BTW friends, there is also a doubt in my mind..i want to get into both 10 mtr air rifle and 50 mtr prone...i have been told to start with 50 mtr prone..an dthen move to 10 mtr rifle..what you guys think bout it ?
