Recommendations for Hunting Orientated Gun Club

Looking to get back into shooting.

I have experience with Rifles but mostly Handguns in the past.
Handguns are fun but i'd like to take up with Field Rifle shooting with the view of becoming more proficient at long range shooting with Centrefires around .223 or .243

Ive done a bit of googling but haven't found much, does anyone know of a Rifle club (Pref SoR) that not only does field shooting practise and competition but has a hunting arm or group within the club to go on hunts?

 

I'm a SSAA member but don't hold a current FAL

Cheers!

Is target rifle shooting although some of the shooters may hunt as well, if you want to learn how to shoot accurately at long range this would be a good place to start, if your more into hunting I think there is SSAA at Pinjar and Chidlow's (Mundaring).

 Hey Trade wind- Have a look at Perth Rifle Metalic Silouhette club and a dicpline called Practical hunting rifle.... I am a member and cant speak hightly enough- They are always looking for new members and if you dont currently have a FAL there are club rifles and ammo you can use for a small fee. 

If any one is keen please PM for more details
