Savage Arms has announced that it now a Gold Sponsor of the Canadian Rimfire Precision Series (CRPS). With over 20 annual events, Savage’s Precision Series rifles are a perfect fit for the CRPS.

The CRPS is a non-profit organization founded in 2018 to introduce and promote the competitive shooting sports to Canadians coast-to-coast and hosts over 100 events and over 1,500 competitors annually. With a focus on the .22 LR cartridge for its competitions, the CRPS provides fun, challenging and cost-effective precision rimfire events that are suitable for participants of all ages and experience levels.

“The Canadian Rimfire Precision Series is proud to announce a sponsorship agreement with Savage Arms in support of its 2021 season,” said Rick Katigbak, the founder and president of the CRPS. “The partnership with Savage Arms will allow the CRPS to host more events in 2021 and provide competitors with the opportunity to see, first-hand, Savage’s line of precision rimfire rifles including the new competition-oriented B22 Precision models.”

“We’re proud to have this opportunity to work with the CRPS,” said Beth Shimanski, director of marketing for Savage Arms. “Our MARK II and Precision Series rimfire rifles are ideal for these type of rimfire matches—it is what they’re built to do, but there’s much more to this sponsorship. The CRPS is opening up affordable shooting sports to everyone and that fits perfectly with the mission of Savage Arms.”
