25.01.2022 AGM this Sunday from 10 am, all members are asked to attend , this is your club and you should have input into the election of the Committee and discipline captains, speak up now or hold your peace until next year.

25.01.2022 The next Shotgun shoot scheduled for Saturday 3rd October has been cancelled due to the AFL Grand Final. Members wishing to shoot can do so using the club thrower (must have key for clay thrower and own clays etc) on an informal/practice basis. The following shoot will be the Shotgun Championships on October 17th. The PRMSC Shotgun Championships (17/10/15) will have a change of format and starting time. Starting at 1.00 sharp (Registration will be open from 12.00), the Champi...onship will consist of 50 single targets with a entry fees set at $10 (Gold Members) and $20 (standard Members). Only PRMSC financial members are invited to shoot and be eligible for subsequent place awards. A BBQ and social discourse will follow the shoot. Although the recipients of the Championship Awards, Perpetual Trophy, and season Aggregate winners will be announced following the event, the official recognition will be conducted at the club AGM on November 1st. Members wishing to participate in the Shotgun Championships are asked to email John Sherriffs at [email protected] . This will assist in catering. You may also wish to advise if you require the use of Club shotguns and the purchase of ammo. Members supplying their own ammunition are reminded that shotsize for the Championships is restricted to size 7 to 9 inc. Kind Regards

24.01.2022 OK everyone the State Champs are upon us, tomorrow it starts, air rifle and rimfire rifle on Saturday starting at 8 am and all the Centrefire's are being held on Sunday, starting at 9 am. Practice starts at 7 am both days PRMSC committee members are wearing RED caps so if you need assistance pick one of us out.

24.01.2022 Hi everyone well the weekend is upon us and we will be shooting the 500m fly at 7 am Saturday morning, then a metallic silhouette shoot at around 10.30 am to give people something to do until the fun begins with the practical hunting competition starting at 12.30 mid day Saturday, then on Sunday it all happens with the rimfire rifle and rimfire pistols being run at the same time for our main comp of metallic silhouette and then the centrefire rifles and the centrefire handgun...s will be shot after that. Remember all you newbies if you want to have some fun come up the club before 8 am and see the friendly people running the competition they can get you allocated a bay to shoot from a good .22 rifle if you don't have one or your rifle is not suited to this kind of shooting, it will only cost $10 for the comp and $5 for a full box of .22 target ammunition. anyway that's it in a nut shell the practical hunting boys will welcome you all with open arms as well if you want to have a shot with them also. CHEERS from me, Brendan. See more

22.01.2022 PRMSC have come to the decision on the state championships that the air rifle will be shot first consisting of a 40 shot match then the rimfire rifle competitions for open class and hunter class to be held after the air rifle competition has finished we are looking at the air rifle to finish by 9.30 am and the rimfire competition to commence at approx 10 am with an 80 shot match to decide the winner with the usual shoot off according to the official rules for any ties. On Sun...day we shall commence shooting the centrefire competition at 9 am with a practice period from 7 am until 8.30 then a safety briefing and the targets to be stood up, as with the other competitions the hunter class will be shot in conjunction with the open division and service rifle will be shot after the RMS centrefire competition is finished all centrefire competitions will be 40 shots with the shoot offs in accordance with the rule book for any ties. If you have any questions or comments please let us know, the official RMS state invitation will be sent out shortly please look out for it on your clubs notice board as well as your club emails. thank you all for looking , here's hoping we have a larger than usual turn out and all medals are presented last year we had several medals not claimed . thank you PRMSC committee, Brendan 003.

21.01.2022 Hi Everyone we will be having the inaugural 200m rimfire fly shoot this Saturday from 10.30 so bring a rest and maybe a rear sandbag a box of your rifles favorite ammo $10 to enter and shoot to win. If you have shot the 500m fly this will be just as challenging but we hope to see a few 200m rimfire fly badges handed out this weekend , Hopefully I will be there with Scott to have a go and range officer it I have my benchrest range officer certificate, there are plenty of people there to help out if you need any assistance so please come along,,, the rifle we shoot the metallic silhouette comp will be able to shoot the fly no problem, we use the same scopes on rifles for 500m that some of us are using for silly wets. 24X is plenty good enough even a lower magnification scope will do I use a 6 - 18 Weaver scope myself on my model 5 BRNO.

21.01.2022 Hello everyone due to the bush fire's and the road closures the committee and competition delegates have decided to not hold any competitions this weekend both Saturday and Sundays comps will be affected, this will not stop anyone going up the club for a shoot as long as you have the key and combo to get in, you may or may not get into the complex it is up to the police and FESA weather the roads are open or not , it will be up to you if you want to go and risk being turn back, We do not do this lightly but we can not guarantee access . Thank you for looking, Brendan PRMSC secretary

20.01.2022 HI Everyone please remember the club AGM will be held on Sunday the first of November starting at 9 am, you can pay your membership fees to the treasurer on the day, also you will be asked to fill in a form with your details so please allow time for this before or after the AGM.

19.01.2022 State RMS champs are down for Sat 11th and Sunday 12th of May.

19.01.2022 Attention all members and visitors you must wear suitable clothing and closed in shoes to shoot at the club, loose dangling clothes and jewelry as well as thongs / Sandals etc are not allowed for safety reasons, all juniors MUST wear eye and ear protection while at the line.

16.01.2022 Just a note to remind all members that we do not have an official lost property box , can all members do a final check of the areas that they shoot to see if they had left anything behind, if you find something and there is no body about then either put the property in the drawer of the score-takers table or inside the main clubhouse up the back corner on the large cabinet , if it is something you would not like to leave behind then please contact a committee member or the discipline delegate and ask them what to do you should have a contact number for the shoot captain if not ask him for his number, it will be handy in-case you leave something behind or find something at the club. Thank you from, the Perth Rifle Metallic Silhouette Club Committee You can email the club secretary on [email protected]

16.01.2022 Hi everyone just to let you know the range will be closed tomorrow morning (Sunday 2nd of Nov) for a 500m fly shoot invitational. All members are welcome to go see the shooting there will be some awesome rigs on show and the weather looks good for some good scores to be put on paper.

16.01.2022 Hi there after the AGM ALL members need to wear a lanyard & card holder with their SSAA membership card and the club membership card in it when shooting at the club so I purchased 150 waterproof card holders and lanyards to be handed out when membership fees have been paid , the lanyard and card holder have been provided to all members free of charge, royal blue lanyards for general members and red lanyards will be given to the new committee voted in at the AGM also to the discipline delegates so members can point these people out for visitor inquires. Thank you, Brendan, Secretary PRMSC.

16.01.2022 An Upper House inquiry has recommended that a two-year trial of recreational hunting in WA nature reserves be allowed to go ahead. Tabling its report in Parliament today, the Standing Committee on Public Administration said recreational hunting was done safely in NSW and Victoria and there was no reason WA should not follow suit. The report was not unanimous, however, with two of the committee's five members - Labor MLCs Amber-Jade Sanderson and Darren West - submitting a dis...senting report. The committee said a two-year pilot program should be held subject to certain conditions such as a "thorough" risk assessment, consideration of native title requirements and the measurement of its effects on feral animal numbers and local economies. The committee also suggested that any hunting scheme be accompanied by an online booking and GPS tracking systems, saying they had proven successful in NSW. Noting that hunting could run up against native title hurdles, the inquiry said the trial should be located in two relatively manageable and separate areas such as a reclaimed pastoral station and a state forest in the South West. "After considering the evidence, the Committee takes the view that the question of the introduction of a recreational hunting system in Western Australia is one that has many differing viewpoints in the Western Australian community," the report said "Should a recreational hunting system be adopted in Western Australia, an independent risk manager should be engaged prior to its implementation. "The Committee finds that the online booking and GPS tracking systems used in New South Wales are extremely helpful in managing risks of hunting. "There are long standing, well-established systems for recreational hunting in other jurisdictions." Calls for a recreational hunting trial immediately provoked outrage from animal welfare activists and conservation groups, who said it was a dangerous step that would do nothing to reduce pests. According to the dissenting report by Ms Sanderson and Mr West, there was no evidence to support the conclusion that hunting would benefit the environment or tourism industries. Instead, they said the testimony presented to the committee suggested hunting "can be dangerous, expensive to manage, potentially damaging to other industries, at odds with aboriginal hunting practices and with native title rights (and) also highly ineffective as a means of controlling targeted species". "No government agency supported the introduction of a recreational hunting system in either hearings or submissions to the committee," the Labor MPs noted in their report.

15.01.2022 Hi Everyone just a reminder that the club will be shooting the handgun champs this Sunday, 7am to 8.30 am practice then rimfire starts at 9am and the C/f will have a 15 minute practice session after the rimfire finishes and then there will be 2 40 shot matches ater that a half distance course of fire for low powered C/f handguns (9mm to 38 super) and then the full size shoot at the full distance for every C/F gun, things may change on the day depending on who turns up so please try to make it early $10 per event, Trophies will be presented at the AGM if time permits for the making of trophies but winners will get them. We had to change everything because of the WSC closing down for major fence repairs so we quickly decided on this day, next year the Club will be better prepared with trophies and prizes etc .

13.01.2022 Just a reminder to all that this Sunday is the clubs pistol championships so NO RIFLE competition will be run ONLY PISTOL COMPS this Sunday. Rimfire followed by low powered centrefire followed by hi powered centrefire, rimfire starts at 9 and centrefire to follow on after the rimfire has completed , time for centrefire can nor be given due to the unknown time the rimfire comp will take, club champion will be decided by the rimfire score as all pistol shooters have rimfire pistols but not all have centrefire pistols, club pistols are available to anyone who has not got their own pistol but have done the pistol safety course. Thank you, PRMSC committee.

12.01.2022 Hi everyone we are just finalizing the dates for the RMS state champs so look out for that, there are heaps of grades etc to compete in so just because you are not the best shooter out there you could still walk away with a medal or even the door prize , last year my wife won it, a SSAA single swag, my son has claimed it for himself to use out camping. Thanks for looking, Brendan 009

11.01.2022 for anyone be a member of the PRMSC club you MUST be financial with both the club and the SSAA ( and at least the SSAA for life members), if you are not a financial member of the SSAA you can not use our range, the same applies if you are more that 3 months late with your club fees, you will be asked to leave the premises and hand in your WSC gate key as you will no longer be covered by PRMSC and SSAA insurance and all club assisted firearms will have to be handed in until yo...u are financial again. if you are too far unfinancial all you waiting times will be reset so 6 month wait for your first pistol and 12 months after that for any other pistol you want or have at a dealers, {PLEASE REMEMBER THIS. we are asked every year if everyone is complying with the law to keep their guns, we have in the past told the police a club member with supported guns is not complying we hope we do not have to do it again, just doing it makes me feel bad. thank you for looking, Brendan.

10.01.2022 Hi EVERYONE well the club committee has decided that there will be no competitions on in 2 weeks time so everyone will be able to attend the shot show, the club will still be available for shooting on but there will be no competitions , We hope you have an enjoyable time at the shot show it looks like it will be BIG with over 80 sellers from all over the country being there also our club will have a stall there so call in and say hello.
