Are you guys open to the public or only during these events?

 

[pjogrinc]

Hibbing Rifle and Pistol is a membership only club with about 400 members.

During shooting events, that part of the club is open to the public for that shooting event.

The Trap club is open to the public on Mondays and Thursdays 'til October.

There is serious talk about setting up and including a 5 round, 600 yard 6 inch gongs as part of the match. More to come.
