The National Rifle Association of America has announced Daniel Defense as an official sponsor of the 2025 NRA World Shooting Championship, which is returning to Camp Atterbury, Indiana, from September 30 to October 4.

The NRA World Shooting Championship is one of the most prestigious and comprehensive multi-discipline competitions in the world. Designed to test the skills of professional and amateur shooters alike, the event spans a wide range of shooting disciplines—including pistol, rifle, shotgun and combined arms stages—over several days of competition. All firearms, ammunition and optics are provided to ensure a level playing field for every competitor.

“The NRA is thrilled to have Daniel Defense sign on as a sponsor of this year’s NRA World Shooting Championship,” said Josh Savani, Executive Director of NRA General Operations. “Competitors will be tested with the precision rich features on rifles designed by Daniel Defense as they aim to be crowned the ‘World’s Best Shooter.’”

This year at the NRA World Shooting Championship, Daniel Defense will sponsor the Precision Rifle Series stage, supplying the company’s Delta 5 Pro Rifles.

Stage 11 PRS: Competitors will run a fast-paced PRS stage fired under rules from the sport’s governing body, Precision Rifle Series. Competitors will engage steel flash targets beyond 400 yards from the PRS barricade using a Delta 5 Pro rifle chambered in 6.5 mm Creedmoor outfitted with a Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5x25 scope.

Daniel Defense has provided six of their new DD PCC 916 rifles chambered in 9 mm to be included on the prize table, which in all has a total value nearing $250,000. Something else to note: the 2025 NRA World Shooting Championship prize table is available to both amateur and professional shooters.

Sponsorship opportunities in support of NRA competitive shooting programs are available. Individuals, companies and organizations interested can contact Steve Kupcha, Managing Director of NRA Corporate Partnerships, at [email protected].
