Professional and Amateur Shooters Survive Zombie Pandemic at 5th Annual Hornady® Zombies in the Heartland Match

Over 450 zombie hunters armed with handguns, shotguns, and rifles converged in Grand Island, Nebraska, June 3-5, 2016, to battle the "undead" during the 5th annual Zombies in the Heartland 3-Gun Shooting Match hosted by Hornady® and Heartland Public Shooting Park.

Shooters from across the country tested their talent in the match that featured 10 stages and multiple side match stages. Specially developed reactive zombie targets kept everyone engaged and entertained. Participants shot from inside a helicopter, on a fishing boat, while crossing a swinging bridge, while running the bases, and other challenging and unique positions.

The top shooters in each class were:

  • Open: 1st Jerry Miculek, 2nd James Darst, 3rd Ryan Muller
  • Tactical: 1st Taran Butler, 2nd Jacob Betsworth, 3rd Lance Dingler
  • Ladies: 1st Lena Miculek, 2nd Dianna Muller
  • Junior: 1st Kain Klein
  • Senior: 1st Jerry Miculek, 2nd Kurt Miller
  • Super Senior: 1st John Sherlock

"We’re thrilled the event has become so popular,” said Neil Davies, Hornady Marketing Director. “Three-gun competitors from around the country come to enjoy a challenging environment built around a popular Zombie theme. A prize table worth over $200,000 from a long list of sponsors keeps everyone interested, too.”
