We warmly invite you to take part in the official opening on Thursday 21st February from 2pm until 9pm, with refreshments and canapés served throughout the event.

Representatives for the open event will be attending from the major gun manufacturers of Beretta, Benelli, Browning, Blaser, Caesar Guerini, Rizzini, Perazzi, Sako & Tikka. They will all be bringing a vast selection of guns to showcase allowing you to see their full selection. Robert Everitt from Hull Cartridge will be in attendance to answer anything ballistic and showcase their range of shells stocked here in the cartridge store. The recently re-launched Fieldsports magazine will also be here, a publication with great content of all things shooting.

As many of our regular customers will be aware we have undergone some major development changes, and these have all been finally complete. This project has taken a full year from start to finish and has required very careful planning in a stage by stage process. This has allowed us to continue to function as a business and provide our quality service with as little disruption as possible whilst maintaining maximum security. The whole project began with building the new cartridge store, enabling us to move our stock from the old cartridge store to then start alterations to make this area into new gunrooms. After the new gunrooms were ready this then allowed us to empty the existing gunroom and from there begin construction of the extended shop space. The final stages of shop fitting and flooring were complete in January 2019, almost a full year after the first building blocks were laid.

Bywell Shooting Ground started back in 1980 and things have come a very long way since the days of a wooden hut and a handful of clay pigeon traps. This development is the third evolution of Bywell Shooting Ground and has come just in time to deal with the volume of stock and customer requirements. The simple fact is that with every expansion we have outgrown, and time had come for things to be changed again to allow us to continue to deliver un-rivalled customer service.

We look forward to seeing you to celebrate this with us. As a gesture to mark the occasion will be offering a 20% discount on all clothing and accessories, however it excludes guns, ammunition and sale items. Having people like yourself who have supported us over the years is very important, we really wouldn’t be here today without you.

The Henry family.
