The NRA Imperial Meeting (the Association's national championship) was first held on Wimbledon Common in 1860.

The clock tower, Fulton's Gun Shop and the Exhibition Pavilion are particularly fine examples which survive to this day.

[12] The camp originally had its own railway branch line which ran from nearby Brookwood station, and was known as the "Bisley Bullet".

[13] In 1894 Colt, the US firearms manufacturer, introduced and sold the Bisley Model of its famous Single Action Army revolver specifically designed for target shooting.

The 2002 Commonwealth Games saw some capital investment to the sports facilities, including the construction of the National Clay Shooting Centre.

However, other facilities including the accommodation and camping ablutions declined, with the NRA making significant redundancies in 2011 and 2012.

[21] Controversially, clubhouse leases were also updated to include the value of the buildings, increasing the leasehold significantly.

The tenant of the Artists Rifles Clubhouse fought a high-profile battle in the media, having rejected the outcome of arbitration.

[22] It was eventually established that the NRA did own the building, although improvements made by the tenant were to be accounted for in setting the rent.

[28] Short Siberia is situated furthest away from the main Camp area on the far side of Century Range.

It is available from 800, 900 and 1,000 yards (730, 820 and 910 metres) and was installed after consultation with the Single Shot Black Powder Cartridge Rifle Club of Great Britain.

Bay B offers 6 static targets out to 25 metres (82 feet) and contains a high-velocity canopy and rubber granulate trap.
