Raghav Hi ,
Welcome to the forum and hope you have posted an introduction.

Gents,
Raghav is the son of a good friend of mine and thats how he is on this forum.
He's just bought a new air pistol and is looking for guidance from all you experts.
Do take some time to groom him as he seems a passionate sort and this is his first time.

Cheers Rohit.

Raghav, you don't really need to "enrol" yourself - you can just go there and shoot if you so wish. They will charge you a range fee and rental for the airgun(s) i.e. if you rent one of their range guns, in stead of using your own.

You can buy targets from them and they also (usually) have .177 cal pellets also available for sale.

Don't think they have any formal training program, but the range manager would be able to guide you as far as the basics are concerned. So just go there and start your journey... :)

Cheers!
Abhijeet

Raghav,

Before you start shooting have a read through the Gun Safety thread in the General Rambling forum.

You don't need any membership for the Siri fort range to use there shooing range. Just go there - shoot and pay them there fee for gun / target / pellets.

Currently Siri fort range is under contract with Mr. Jaspal rana, if u want to pursue this seriously go there and meet him in personal and discuss.

Normally if you go for ISSF 10m Disciplines .177 is the way to go. But generally to plink cans and all.22 is okay.
