Young visitor aiming a scoped air rifle at the Crackshot range in Newton Abbot
Visitor firing a rapid-fire BB pistol at the Crackshot pistol range

The most popular 1-hour option — and the one most visitors talk about afterward. You split your session between the 20-metre scoped air rifle range and the rapid-fire BB pistol range. The pistol range is the standout: gas-powered semi-automatic handguns, reactive metal knockdown targets that ping and fall, and unlimited ammunition to empty magazine after magazine. It’s addictive. The rifle range offers a quieter, more precision-focused contrast — perfect for building up to the excitement of the pistols.

Visitor aiming downrange at the Crackshot 20-metre air rifle range
The Simway Hunt digital shooting simulator screen at Crackshot Newton Abbot

The best option for families and younger visitors. You split an hour between the 20-metre scoped air rifle range and the Simway Hunt digital shooting simulator — a two-player big-screen experience with scenarios ranging from wild boar hunts to clay pigeons at 140mph and a Wild West target challenge. The simulator is the most accessible activity for anyone under 16 or those who find the idea of a real firearm (even an air gun) daunting. The competitive two-player format makes it a natural crowd-pleaser for families and couples.

Shooting in Newton Abbot: What to Know

Devon isn’t the first place most people think of for a shooting experience, but Crackshot has built a strong reputation since opening in February 2015 as one of the best indoor shooting venues in the South West. Located in Heathfield Industrial Estate just off the A38, the venue is purpose-built and fully indoor — heated, air-conditioned, and completely unaffected by Devon’s famously unpredictable weather.

What makes Crackshot unusual is the variety under one roof. Most shooting venues offer a single type of activity. Crackshot gives you three distinct experiences — precision air rifles, fast-paced reactive-target pistol shooting, and a high-tech digital simulator — each with a very different feel. The rapid-fire pistol range is consistently the favourite, but the Simway Hunt simulator is the surprise hit for families.

Importantly, Crackshot uses air guns exclusively — .177 calibre pellet rifles and gas-powered BB pistols. Under UK law, these don’t require a firearms certificate at a supervised range. That makes the venue accessible to anyone aged 10 and above, regardless of nationality or background. No paperwork, no licence checks — just show up and shoot.
