Welcome to North Arm Rifle Club

North Arm Rifle Club provides experienced shooters and those interested to Come and Try our sport with a well equipped, friendly, safe and picturesque venue for precision long range target rifle shooting. We are located at The Davison Range Target Sports Complex, between Yandina and Eumundi, and centrally located on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast.

The sport of Fullbore covers several different disciplines including:

  • F-Class using a rest and telescopic sights
  • Target Rifle using a sling and open sights
  • Sporter / Hunter class.

At Davison Range Fullbore is shot between 300 metres to 700 yards. To be a successful shooter competitively our sport requires training, experience, refinement of technique, skills such as wind reading (which can be especially challenging among the hills of Davison Range), handloading, patience and concentration. Fullbore competitors also score and check score for each other during competition.

North Arm Rifle Club offers shooting each Saturday on a fortnightly cycle of practice and club competition together with annual prize meetings events. Please see our range calendar for a full list of forthcoming events.

Visitors are always welcome to the club and unlicensed shooters wishing to Come and Try need to make an appointment to attend a club practice day where they will receive one on one guidance to safely experience the thrill and challenges of fullbore shooting.

To make an appointment to Come and Try call Des on 0408 063 896.

F-Standard (F-Std) is one of the core divisions in F-Class rifle shooting, offering a unique balance of precision, skill, and accessibility. Unlike F-Open, which allows a wide range of calibers and equipment, F-Standard restricts shooters to .223 Rem or .308 Win and limits rifle weight. This levels the playing field and emphasizes marksmanship over technology.

Compared to F-Open or F/TR, F-Std encourages tighter fundamentals—wind reading, trigger control, and load development must all be finely honed. There’s less room for ballistic advantage, making it a purer test of shooter consistency and skill.

For those seeking high-level competition without an arms race in gear, F-Standard offers a more disciplined and cost-contained path to excellence. It’s where fundamentals are king—and performance speaks louder than equipment. … See MoreSee Less
