Rifle
SURC is the most successful University shooting club in the country, and we welcome new members of all experience levels. We compete both locally and nationally, in both the .22 Smallbore and 7.62mm Fullbore disciplines, and have our own 20 yard indoor range just north of Highfield. We provide kit (including rifles) and coaching for all members, and those with talent can compete for the university at events such as the BUCS championships, which we have won eleven out of the last thirteen years. If you fancy joining in the most successful UoS sports club then get in touch now!
The Southampton University Rifle Club is one of the most successful University rifle clubs in the country. Our main discipline is .22 prone target rifle, which we shoot at a 20-yard range not far from campus. We also shoot regularly at an outdoor range in Andover and train at 50m and 100 yards in preparation for our biggest competition of the year BUCS Outdoor championships, which we have won 11 times. Many of our shooters compete in County teams and also go on to shoot for inter-area, national and even international sides. We accept all levels of experience, including complete novices. Before COVID-19, we had earned the university the most BUCS points out of every sports team for 3 years running, raising our profile within the university and also across the UK. This year we are looking forward to growing the club and welcoming those of all abilities to come and try something new!
