The Range
The range is open Saturday and Sunday, 12 Noon to 4:30 PM, and is open Wednesday
evenings during the months of May through September, from 6 PM until dusk (9 PM
for Trap Range). Trap Shoots are held on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd,
and 4th Sundays of every month and on Wednesday evenings during the
months of May through September.
Saturday mornings are reserved for our Junior Training Programs and any special
events that may be scheduled. Occasionally, special events may be scheduled on
weekdays. Special events require a Range Safety Officer from Delran Junior
Marksman Club to be present. To reserve the range for a special event, please

We have been steadily improving the range facility and its safety. We feature a
50-yard and 100-yard Rifle Range with overhead baffling for additional safety,
plus a covered firing line with a shooting table/bench at each firing position.
The firing line can accommodate twenty bench rest positions. Many hunters
utilize our range in late summer and autumn to sight-in.
Delran Junior Marksman Club also features a 25-yard Pistol
Range with a covered firing line. The Pistol Range also has overhead baffling
for additional safety. In addition to the 12 25-yard positions, there are 2
15-yard positions, 2 10-yard positions, 2 7-yard positions and 1 5-yard position
We have a Regulation 16 Yard Trap Range with a regulation trap house and
concrete pad at the firing line with stands at each station, and an automatic
trap thrower. We plan to have an ongoing trap program, weather permitting. Along
the right side of the Trap Range we also have a Shotgun Patterning Board.
We further feature an Air Rifle Range with distances of 20, 30, 36, and 45
meters; the Range is also lighted for night use. Various Air Rifle and Air
Pistol Silhouette Matches and Field Target Matches are held throughout the year.
In 1996, we constructed a .22 caliber Small-bore Rifle
Silhouette Range with shooting distances of 40, 60, 77, and 100 meters, with
Chicken, Pig, Turkey, and Ram Silhouettes. This range was constructed with
financial assistance from Friends of NRA.
In 2006, an Archery Target was constructed alongside the fence
next to our Air Rifle Range. We are presently in the process of constructing an
Archery Range.
