About

Keep up to date with range days, competitions and other events at the North Auckland Deer Stalkers Rifle Range located in Riverhead.

The branch of New Zealand Deerstalkers' exists to promote safe and enjoyable hunting, the sport of shooting.

Story

The NZDA was founded in 1937 to promote recreational hunting and shooting sports. It is a national body with branches throughout New Zealand.
The North Auckland Branch was established in 1958, on its current property at Riverhead.

The Branch opens the range complex 22 Sundays per year.

There are two ranges:
•A covered 25m sighting in range.
•A 200/100/50m range for general practice and competitions.

Registration begins at 9:00am, the safety briefing is at 9:15 am, and shooting begins at 9:30 am.

Most morning sessions are general practice at the stated range, most often 100m. Afternoon sessions usually involve a competition of 1-2 hours duration, followed by more general practice until 4:30pm. During competitions members are welcome to continue general practice that fits in with the competition range and format.

You may arrive and leave whenever you want, but people arriving after 9:30 may have to wait to be allocated a shooting lane.

Very important for any new members like me, DO NOT TRUST GOOGLE MAP or it will lead you to another private road with a gate no one attending. Set your GPS to "Burnside Equestrian Centre", then go further into Forestary Road till the end. You will see the gate. Very important experience, if you think you are there, but can not find other people, you may be waiting at a wrong gate. Don't wait alone.
Excellent range. Well run. Cheers to all the range officers volunteering, and providing their great firearms knowledge. particularly Dave. Thanks for help with sighting in my new scope. Dave is awesome
Good range. Thank you to the range officers who volunteer your time. The Taupo deer stalkers range is much better though, due to the way better flexible access. The one down side of the riverhead range is the very rigid access restrictions.
On the yearly calendar, the PDF it says range open to the public. Got there on Sunday said they changed it for NZDA members only. Asks the range master if he would make an exception due to the error on their page he said no. When I mentioned I had tried to contact them on Friday to confirm if the range was open they said sorry no one answered because the person is away on leave. Thought the NZDA would be more understanding but obviously its all about their club and their members and not the sport! Hope Auckland council is not subsidising this range as it seems it belongs to them and stuff any other Aucklanders.Was interested in joining NZDA as I am a keen hunter and hunt just about every month time permitting but going by the range masters attitude it has put me off, not interested at all!
Well run all weather range. Great morning had here.
Great place 25m , 100m and 200m range
Fun and exciting
