On Wednesday, April 29 the NRA released the following statement regarding the cancellation of the 2020 National Rifle and Pistol Championships at Camp Atterbury.

Due to the current state of affairs surrounding COVID-19, the uncertainties associated with this pandemic at present, and shutdowns across our country that have impeded vital preparatory work, the National Rifle Association has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 NRA Precision Pistol Championships, July 1 -5, 2020, 2020 NRA High Power Championships, August 9 - 25, 2020 and the 2020 NRA Smallbore Championships scheduled for July 23 – August 4, 2020.

We are trying to make the best of the current situation by moving forward with range construction and other improvements as we look towards the 2021 NRA National Championships season. The NRA is also exploring the feasibility of hosting a variety of new NRA events at Camp Atterbury (if conditions are favorable) with the state of Indiana later this year.

We share your disappointment that we had to cancel these competitions. The NRA wishes everyone good health and the best of luck. Stay safe and healthy. For more information: https://competitions.nra.org.
