About
Tallahassee Rifle & Pistol Club (TRPC) stands as a premier 40-acre private shooting facility nestled in Leon County, Florida, serving shooters of all experience levels and interests. With a steadfast commitment to safety, skill development, and community engagement, TRPC has established itself as a cornerstone institution for the region’s shooting sports enthusiasts.
The facility’s philosophy centers on a simple but powerful principle: ‘Safety is the REAL target.’ This isn’t merely a slogan but a foundational operational ethos that permeates every aspect of the club’s activities. TRPC invests in on-site medical preparedness with trauma kits and automated external defibrillators (AEDs) strategically positioned throughout the property, demonstrating a genuine commitment to member welfare. Their comprehensive safety protocols ensure that shooters can focus on their sport with confidence, knowing they’re supported by proactive safety measures and professional guidance.
TRPC offers an impressive array of specialized shooting ranges designed to accommodate various disciplines and skill levels. The three dedicated pistol ranges provide dedicated space for handgun training and competition, while the rimfire range caters to .22 caliber enthusiasts engaged in precision and recreational shooting. For long-distance accuracy work, the high-power rifle range features 100, 200, and 300-yard shooting distances, supporting everything from target practice to competitive rifle competitions. The trap and clay shooting range rounds out their facilities, offering shotgun sports enthusiasts a proper venue for wingshooting practice.
One standout feature of TRPC is their collection of reactive steel targets, including a Texas Star and dueling tree configuration. These dynamic targets provide immediate visual feedback on shot placement, making them invaluable for developing accuracy and building competitive shooting skills. The facility recognizes that comfort enhances the shooting experience, so they’ve equipped their ranges with air-conditioned bathrooms, strategic fan placement for ventilation, and a clubhouse serving as a gathering space for members.
Beyond providing excellent shooting facilities, TRPC actively fosters a family-friendly environment and youth engagement. Their youth program reflects a dedication to ‘promoting the love and respect of guns’ across generations, emphasizing responsible firearm ownership from an early age. The club hosts competitive matches open to non-members, creating opportunities for shooters to challenge themselves in organized competitions while building community connections.
With a 4.6-star rating based on numerous reviews, TRPC consistently receives praise for its well-maintained facilities, knowledgeable staff, and welcoming atmosphere. Members and visitors alike appreciate the balance TRPC strikes between providing serious competitive shooting infrastructure and maintaining an inclusive, family-oriented environment that welcomes both beginners and experienced competitors.
