About The Butler County Sportsmen Rifle and Pistol Club
The purpose (of the Butler County Sportsmen Club) is; "to
affiliate individuals interested in enjoyment and use of firearms; to provide facilities
for meetings and orderly and safe instructions and demonstrations of the use of firearms;
to organize various types of contests to promote skill and marksmanship; to lease or
purchase real estate upon which the foregoing activities can be held and to do all things
necessary to create a public interest in the proper and safe use of firearms." Butler County
Sportsmen Rifle & Pistol Club is located on Millville Avenue (State Route 129) between

to see map The club offers indoor rifle and pistol shooting with turning
targets for pistol, indoor air rifle and pistol with moving targets, outdoor 25 and 50
yard pistol shooting with turning targets, 50 and 100 yard rifle range, plinking, trap,
archery, picnic area, and approximately 35 acres for hiking and observing wildlife. Monthly meetings are held the 1st and 3rd Thursday of each month starting at 8:00pm. At the entrance to the
Club, you will see four regulation Little League baseball diamonds on our Club
property. The Club feels one of the ways we can contribute to our Community is to provide
the space for the Ball Diamonds used by the Millville Community Baseball (Little League
Affiliation). We lease the land to Millville Community Baseball for $1.00 per year. Members have access to the
Club 24 hours per day, seven days per week, except for meetings and organized events. The
Club holds regularly scheduled matches for black powder rifle, high power rifle, pistol,
smallbore , .22 silhouette, and archery. As a courtesy to our good neighbors around
the club property, shooting on all of the outdoor ranges is limited from 9:00AM till dusk
each day. The Club sponsors a Junior
smallbore rifle and pistol program that runs from October to April which is taught by
experienced NRA Certified Instructors. Each year we properly instruct about 200 young
shooters between the ages of 12 to 18. All equipment and supplies are provide free of
charge, and the parents need not be a Club member. The Club also offers its
facilities to a local 4-H club for them to conduct programs for smallbore rifle, smallbore
pistol, modern shotgun, black powder rifle, and archery. These programs are taught by 4-H
certified instructors, and the parents need not be a member for their children to
participate. Again, this is free to the public. The Club is a charter
member of the National Rifle Association, the National Muzzle Loading Rifle Association,
and the National Sporting Clays Association. Ammunition, reloading
supplies, reloading equipment, firearms, and targets can be purchased through the Club or
club members at discounted prices. Hunting is NOT permitted
on the property! Any person 18 years of
age and of good character may submit an application for membership. An existing member
with at least one year of membership is needed to sponsor a new applicant. Come to any
scheduled meeting to submit you application. Range rules and safety
procedures ARE enforced at ALL TIMES! Violations could very well result in that member's
expulsion.
We'll see you on the range.
