Colorado’s Camdyn Powers didn’t just shoot her way through 2025—she rewrote the standards for precision rifle competition.

Across 10 major matches, the Burris Shooting Team member wasn’t simply competing; she was defining what it means to dominate in rimfire precision shooting. Seven first-place finishes, a regional podium, a national finale appearance and a world championship title made her 2025 season one for the record books.

The year kicked off in January with a win at the Palmer Divide Rimfire match, a harbinger of the relentless streak that would carry her through the Precision Rifle Series Rimfire calendar. March brought wins at Gravestone Rimfire and the TX Precision Matches, and July saw Powers light up the Elevated Precision July Scorcher. By September, a decisive victory at the BLGC PRS Rimfire match made it clear: this wasn’t just a strong season, it was a statement.

Her consistency earned her a second-place finish at the PRS Rocky Mountain South Regional Finale and a coveted spot at the PRS Rimfire National Finale in Parma, Idaho, a stage reserved for the country’s best precision rifle competitors. But the crowning moment came across the Atlantic.

At the IPRF PR22 Rimfire World Championship in Market Drayton, United Kingdom, Powers faced 256 elite shooters from 21 countries over four grueling days. Representing Team USA, she not only helped secure gold for the team but also claimed the World Champion title in the Ladies Division—finishing 17 points clear of her nearest rival.

“Competing at the 2025 IPRF Rimfire World Championships was the perfect finish to a season I’m truly grateful for—full of wins, lessons and a few hardships that ultimately pushed me to grow and stay determined,” Powers said. “Worlds brought all of that hard work into focus, and even when it tested my process, it never broke. Winning my gold medal was more than a victory; it was a proud reminder that with dedication, belief and the support of family, friends and the Lord’s strength, the goals you chase can become your reality. Standing on that podium was a moment I'll carry with me forever, a place in precision rifle history that we earned together.”

Powers’ approach to shooting—methodical, calm and precise—reflects a mindset built on problem-solving, discipline and faith. Known for meticulous preparation and an unwavering focus, she treats every stage like a challenge to master rather than a race to win.

“I’m incredibly thankful for the people and partners who stand behind me,” she said. “Representing Burris for the past four years—especially on the world stage—has been an honor.”

As one of the most accomplished shooters in PRS Rimfire history closes a landmark season, the message is clear: Camdyn Powers isn’t just a champion; she’s a rising force whose best chapters are still unfolding.
