For the second year in a row, Team Winchester's Zach Kienbuam has garnered High Overall Champion honors at the National Sporting Clay Association's (NSCA) national championship this past October. Kienbaum is also a member of Team Beretta.

A tremendous shotgun shooter, Kienbaum competed against a field of over 1,600 athletes that tackled four separate courses of fire during the match. He brought home the title with a strong score of 290 targets out of 300.

The big win ends a stellar year of shooting for Kienbaum, who took the top spot at no less then six different NSCA events this season, also earning four runner-up titles. In a nutshell, he is one of the top sporting clays competitive shooters in the country.

Notably, Kienbaum used Winchester AA shotshells at each competition in his Beretta DT11 Sporting 12/32 shotgun. You can bet that he counted on the consistent performance of these products to secure all of his wins. Learn more about the NSCA at nsca.nssa-nsca.org.
