Sight-In Rifles

Hunting

The Spokane Rifle Club once again will open its range to the public so hunters can zero-in their rifles before the general hunting seasons.

Non-members are invited to the range Sept. 21-Oct. 11, except Mondays and Tuesdays, from 8 a.m.5 p.m. The club is at the junction of Aubrey White Parkway and Rifle Club Road along the Spokane River downstream from the Bowl and Pitcher.

“We do this as a service, because hunters should be in the field to harvest animals, not wound them,” said Tom Higgins, club spokesman.

The club charges $6 for hunters with one firearm and $8 for one hunter with two firearms. The club provides targets, hearing and eye protection and helpers who can assist with minor gun adjustments.

“Safety is our top concern,” Higgins said. “All firearms must arrive at the club fully unloaded.”
