Ranges for public, private and government use
Sacramento Valley Shooting Center is owned and operated by Folsom Shooting Club INC. SVSC is the premier outdoor shooting range on the West Coast and the largest and best privately held range West of the Mississippi. 2012 marks the third consecutive year that we have attained NRA Gold Medal Range status that shows our ongoing commitment to excellent range services and support of our Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms.
Our ranges provide something for everyone. We provide facilities for shotgun, handgun and rifle shooters. Our multi-million dollar 860+ acre facility has well over 400 firing positions and is home to many different sub disciplines. Our ranges are sought out by many world class shooters and we host several regional, national and international events every year.
Sacramento Valley Shooting Center is a world class facility with many private member only ranges. We also permit public access to our 100 and 300 yard rifle ranges, as well as our 50 yard pistol and .22 rim fire steel silhouette range.

Safe Shooting is great shooting
We take your safety seriously at Sac Valley. Shooting is a very safe sport when practiced correctly. We require that all range employees become NRA certified Range Safety Officers, even our maintenance staff. We want you to take safety seriously too, so we have a few requirements for all shooters. Eye and hearing protection are mandatory for anyone on the range. Please be aware that all firearms on the public range MUST use an empty chamber indicator during cease fire periods. Bring your own or buy one at the office for a nominal fee.
Safety and CCW Classes
Getting a CCW permit in Sacramento County and some surrounding counties is very easy. Recent changes in issuing policies mean that as long as you are not a felon or have been convicted of certain other crimes you are able to get a CCW. Self Defense is good cause, you don't need to be a banker! You do have to pass a background check and pass a 16 hour safety course. Sac Valley can help you with the training. Call us to find out when the next class is on. FSC members get a discount!
