K&M Precision Rifle Training announces dates for the 1st annual K&M Team Precision Rifle Competition. Combined with K&M’s first class training facilities this event will be a premier team long range precision match.
This will be a high tempo match with minimal “down time” between stages. The course of fire will test and train disciplines from across law enforcement, military and practical marksman spectrums. A special emphasis will be placed on team work, communication and problem solving. Teams can expect engagements from 50-1000yds at an assortment of steel, reactive, paper and automated moving targets. Target size will vary in difficulty based on the shooters position, distance and time allotted. Most stages will include “stressors”, either time and/or movement. All scoring will be transparent, balanced and reward the most consistent teams. The competition will require 175 rounds for each shooter to complete the course of fire and is caliber restricted to 300 WinMag and below. COF will be made public at the start of the competition on Saturday at 7:00am.
