The NRA World Shooting Championship brings together the best professional and amateur shooters in the world for one of the most prestigious and comprehensive multi-discipline competitions ever devised. Designed to test the skills of professional and amateur shooters alike, the event spans multiple shooting disciplines—including pistol, rifle, shotgun and combined arms stages—over several days of competition to crown the “World’s Best Shooter.” All firearms, ammunition and optics are provided to ensure a level playing field for every competitor.

“The NRA is thrilled to have KelTec sign on as a sponsor of this year’s NRA World Shooting Championship,” Josh Savani, Executive Director of NRA General Operations said. “Competitors will be tested with some of the very best firearms from KelTec’s line as they aim to be crowned the ‘World’s Best Shooter.’ This is a competition that professional and casual shooters will not want to miss.”

This year at the NRA World Shooting Championship, KelTec will sponsor two competition stages, supplying firearms for both professional and amateur divisions.

Side Match 4. Falling Steel Stage. Competitors will run a fast-paced, reactive steel target course using the KelTec SUB2000 Gen3 pistol-caliber carbine chambered in 9 mm Luger equipped with a red-dot optic.

Side Match 6. NRA America’s Rifle Challenge (ARC) Level 1 Match. Competitors will tackle a tactical rifle course using KelTec’s new SRO Peacekeeper Carbine chambered in 5.56 mm NATO and outfitted with a 1-8X LPVO scope.

All KelTec firearms featured during the 2025 NRA World Shooting Championship will also be included on the competitor prize table, which in total will offer cash and prizes approaching $250,000—available to both amateur and professional shooters.

“We’re grateful to be part of the 2025 NRA World Shooting Championship as it makes its return,” KelTec Marketing Manager Matt Stanek. “It’s an absolute blast for newcomers and seasoned shooters alike, and the prize table is always stacked. We’re proud to be in great company again this year.”
