Hopedale Pistol and Rifle Club, Inc. (HPRC) is a privately owned and operated not-for-profit corporation. The Club features an eight-lane, 50-foot indoor range, meeting room, reloading room, and bathroom facilities.
The Club meets five times a year and offers 24/7/365 access through an electronic key card system. Range activities are monitored through a state-of-the-art video surveillance system that is remotely accessible and records continuously to ensure compliance with range rules.
The Club has a liberal guest policy, allowing members to share their shooting experiences with friends. There are currently no work hour requirements for new members or for maintaining membership.
HPRC allows rifles chambered in .22 caliber and most handgun cartridges. Rifle shooting distances are 50 feet only. Handguns are permitted up to SW500, including magnums and jacketed cartridges. Handgun shooting distances are either 25 or 50 feet.
The Club features a cutting-edge ventilating system designed to ensure shooter safety and to exceed the rigorous standards set by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) for Small Arms Range Ventilation Systems. This system is believed to be the only certified and most modern one in the state operated by a private club.
