About

Metropolitan Clay Target Club — a shooting club specializing in clay target shooting, based in Quandong (Victoria, Australia). After closing its facility in Epping, the club relocated to the fields of Werribee Victorian Clay Target Club at 1225 Ballan Rd, Quandong VIC 3030, where it conducts all its competitions.

The club offers several disciplines of clay target shooting. The core of the program consists of Olympic and Universal Trap — disciplines where targets are launched from an underground trench block at high speed and at various angles. Alongside these, competitions in DTL are held in several formats: Double Barrel, Single Barrel, Handicap, Double Rise, and Deauville Doubles. For sporting enthusiasts, a five-stand is available, where shooters sequentially navigate five stations with varying target trajectories. The etiquette rules at the range also encompass skeet, indicating the presence of this discipline in the club's program.

Competitions are held on the third Sunday of each month, as well as on the fifth Sunday, if it occurs in the calendar. The club is a member of the Australian Clay Target Association (ACTA) and caters to both experienced shooters and those just beginning their journey in the discipline. The website features sections with advice on obtaining a license, choosing a shotgun, and types of ammunition — a useful resource for beginners.
