I've been searching for 10m air rifle (ISSF) ranges near San Jose, CA, but I could not find any. If anyone knows any shooting range that I can practice at, plz let me know the add. and contact info.

Thanks.

I know there is a range in San Mateo, at Coyote Point.
I've shot there before, but that was a few years ago.

There are a couple closer to you that I have heard about but never been to:

Sunnyvale Rod and Gun Club

Los Altos Rod and Gun Club

Santa Clara Valley Rifle Club

BTW, the website for Sunnyvale Rod & Gun is http://www.sunnyvalegunclub.com , but they don't do 10M ISSF Air Rifle.

Thanks for your replies.

Unfortunately, all of the above ranges do not have an ISSF 10 meter air rifle/pistol range. I need to find a range which has built and used for only "ISSF" 10 meter air rifle/pistol. The range must have the 1.4 meter target height, 10 meter distance and target mover(or electronic target).

If anyone knows, plz let me know.

Since most none of us in the USA shoot to complete "ISSF" rules, you are going to do a lot of looking and traveling to get a range to those specs. Likely Fort Benning, maybe the CMP ranges at Camp Perry Ohio & Anniston Ala, and the Olympic Training Center in Colo Springs Colorado are the only real ones.
Perhaps a really interested club would allow you to set up your own target system for demo purposes and your use.

Did you check out Coyote Point?
They do shoot 10m AP and AR
They use a manual target carrier, so you are shooing on paper, not electronic scoring.

Try the Palo Alto Gun club.

They have held the state air rifle championships there.

It is a nice little range for competitive shooters.
