Aim, Fire, Enjoy! Try Shooting at Wagga Wagga

Join us for an exciting Try Shooting Day at the SSAA NSW Wagga Wagga branch — an opportunity to learn the fundamentals of shooting in a safe, fun and welcoming environment.

Under the guidance of our highly‑trained Range Officers, you’ll get hands‑on with a .22 calibre scoped bolt‑action rifle (or other suitable beginner firearm) and aim at a variety of targets during your session.

Our Try Shooting sessions are tailored especially for first‑time shooters, but are also suitable for those with some experience who may want to sharpen their skills or see what our branch has to offer.

Proudly sponsored by Beretta

Yes. We will allow tickets to be transferred as long as there is one participant per ticket in attendance. Please contact us if you have arranged someone to transfer your ticket to. This will need to be done prior to the event. Unfortunately, refunds will not be issued

Can I book into more than one session?

We ask that each participant books into one session per day only. This is so we can offer as many spots as possible, to as many people as possible.
