Buy Yours Now From Our Partner! This isn’t the ultimate 22LR AR-15 platform, but the semi-automatic Walther Hammerli TAC R1C might just be the best balance of price and performance. This all-metal rifle is generally considered a cut above the plastic efforts from S&W and Mossberg. At Muddy Matches we have over 200,000 members from the UK and Ireland who all have one thing in common: they love the countryside! So if you’re single and looking for someone who’s not averse to a bit of mud, we’re the site for you.

Summer Shooting Programs are Underway - Calendar

These shooting programs are open to the public as well as members. These are not league events, so you can show up once or twice to any event, watch, participate, ask questions, and decide if it's something you want to do regularly. Use the calendar to review upcoming events and find contact information to get your questions answered. The gate is open during these public events, so you can drive right in without worrying about a locked gate.

We will continue to develop and improve the range, as we get grants to provide funding. We need help finding grants so we can apply for them. You can always click the 'Contact Webmaster' link at the bottom of every page on this site.

In April, a powerline right of way was cut from the road to the site of the future clubhouse and indoor range, and we will get poles and lines installed so that we're ready when we move the clubhouse.

Outdoor Range Rules

The outdoor range hours are 08:00 until 1/2 hour before sunset. People live in the area, and we want to remain good neighbors by not making noise too early or too late. Tannerite and similar explosive targets are banned at this range due to insurance requirements. Be careful driving out to the range in the winter or muddy periods. Don't exceed safe speeds for the existing road conditions. Do NOT shoot at rocks or target frames. Rocks create ricochets. If you damage the frames or target holders, volunteers have to spend the time and money to repair them for all range users. Be a responsible range user.

While the range is open to members, please check the club calendar before you head out to make sure that the range is not temporarily closed for construction, training or scheduled shooting events.

Looking for a Pistol Carry Permit Class?

Certified Itasca Gun Club Instructors teach Minnesota Carry Permit Classes at least once a month at our indoor range and classroom. The cost is typically $75 for a one day class that meets all the requirements of the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. Check our Calendar for class dates and times. Information about carry permits is on the same page as the classes. Here's more information on Minnesota and Florida Carry Permits.

Looking for Fun Long Range Shooting?

We have built and placed the new 300 yard steel gong. It is 28” across and constructed of AR500 armor grade steel. It will easily withstand 30-06 armor piercing at 50 yards so it should last a long time at 300 yard line! Conley Janssen and Grant Janssen built and assembled it, with Grant doing some of the final welding so he earned first “GONG”! He put two shots in a 2 inch spotter with his custom 300RUM Remington 700 and Burris F class scope. It rings very nice! Gong Slideshow
