To All Patrons of the Range:
The range is tentatively scheduled to re-open for public use on April 2nd. Upon reopening, only centerfire and rimfire rifles will be permitted on the range. The Sheriff’s Office and Range Safety Officers are evaluating ways to resume pistol marksmanship in the following months, but no final decisions have been made.
CPRPC is also working on a schedule to resume classes and competitive matches in the near-term. As always, public and instructional use are secondary to law enforcement training needs, and hours of operation may be impacted from time to time. In the past the Sheriff’s Office staff have made every effort to accomodate public access and to schedule around posted public hours. This will continue to be the case going forward, but we cannot expect to avoid all scheduling conflicts.
Once the range opens, patrons will generally follow the same operational and safety procedures, but please do expect some changes. All reasonable efforts will be made to share this information and additional news on this website and social media. Both the Sheriff’s Office and the Club appreciate the patience shown while this much-needed building project came to pass.
For questions, please email info@coyotepointrpc.org or contact the Sheriff’s Office directly.

Pistol and Rifle Matches at the Coyote Point Range
Matches are fun, there’s nothing to lose (except for a little piece of pride), and a lot to win in terms of friendship, camaraderie, and a good time at one of the most exciting sports there are.
Paper targets are craving for new holes, and the “X” rings are challenging us. Get ready, and come over!
Points are awarded to the first three winners of every match, provided there are at least five shooters competing. So, the more you win, the less you pay to participate in the next match.
For the schedule, please visit the Events page or download the PDF document.
