Camp Atterbury

Silver Mountain e-targets were in use during this year’s NRA High Power Rifle National Championships at Camp Atterbury. Competitors could see targets and scores updated in real time on tablets and smartphones.


High Power Long-Range

A frequent competitor request, the addition of electronic targets eliminated the need for target-pit duty during the NRA High Power Nationals at Camp Atterbury. The above GIF is from the 2022 NRA Long-Range Championships.


Smallbore Metric Prone

Held on the covered rifle and pistol range at Camp Atterbury, the 2022 NRA Smallbore Conventional Prone National Championship was held July 31 to August 5, followed by the Metric Prone National Championship (above), which wrapped up on August 7.


NRA Trophy Collection

Above you can see Smallbore Rifle trophies from the historic NRA Trophy Collection during the 2022 Smallbore 3-Position National Championship awards ceremony at Camp Atterbury.

Smallbore target change

Here you can see 2022 NRA Smallbore Rifle Conventional Prone Championship competitors changing their targets between strings of fire at Camp Atterbury’s covered Precision Pistol and Smallbore Rifle range.


Rain at Camp Atterbury

The covered range at Camp Atterbury provided excellent protection for shooters from the rain that greeted them the morning of Thursday, August 4, at the NRA Smallbore Rifle Conventional Prone National Championship. Solid rain gear had to suffice for shooters venturing out during target changes, as seen above.


Precision Pistol
