Gosford District Rifle Club was founded at the Kariong Range site in 1947.
One of the founding members and first Captain was a local man, Jim Sweet, who became known nationally as one of the best Australian shooters in the 1950’s

NSDRA CHAMPION OF CHAMPIONS MATCH
Two of our Club Champions competed in the North Shore District C of C Match at Hornsby Range on 4 June 2022.
The competition was shot over four ranges, 300m, 500m, 700m & 800m in very windy conditions.
Adrian Hall emerged the winner in F Standard, making him the District Champion this year. He will now go on to compete in the State Championship.
Grant Roberts finished in second place in Target Rifle, only three points behind the winner, Dmitri Kazakov of Roseville RC.
As there were no other competitors in F Standard Junior, our Club Champion, Sandiswa Nzimande, automatically qualifies to shoot in the State Championship.
