  • Memberships are $100 per calendar year and run from January 1 through December 31. We do not offer rolling or prorated memberships.

    SCFC memberships are family memberships, which include:

    • You

    • Your spouse or significant other (living in the same household)

    • All children under 18 living in the same household

    Members may also bring up to two guests. The member must be present at all times with their guests or family members.

    Your membership is non-transferable. Sharing or loaning your entry credentials will result in immediate termination of your membership.

  • To keep everyone safe and the range in good standing, please note the following:

    • Steel targets are only allowed during sanctioned matches.
      No exceptions.

    • Targets must be placed at or near the base of the berm.
      Shooting “short” of the berm is not permitted.

    • Only shoot approved targets.
      Shooting anything other than the designated target has zero tolerance at SCFC. Violations may result in a lifetime ban.

  • Targets and target stands are the responsibility of each member. Do not assume the range will have equipment available.

    Many members use portable target holders purchased from retailers like Midway or similar suppliers. A popular setup is a simple steel base with two vertical straps.

    Targets and target holders are essential equipment — just like your firearm and ammunition.

  • SCFC allows firearm calibers .338 and smaller. This applies to both rifles and pistols.

    Any additional caliber restrictions or special match requirements will be clearly posted at the range or listed on the event page.

  • For your first visit to SCFC, please be sure to bring:

    • Your firearm and ammunition

    • Eye and ear protection

    • Targets and a target stand

    • Your digital entry key (Kisi)

    We also recommend reviewing our range rules and safety guidelines before arriving so you feel comfortable and confident on the range.
