Grand Island, NE — Hornady® sponsored shooters Clay Blackketter, Austin Orgain, Matt Partain, and Tate Streater will represent the United States at the International Precision Rifle Federation’s World Championship, August 6-12, 2022, in France.

“As a shooter, it means everything to me to represent the United States in any facet, much less the sport that I love most,” said Orgain. “The sport is growing exponentially and now we have an international platform to compete in that will bring more interest and support to precision rifle worldwide,” Orgain added.

The IPRF aims to unify the sport of Precision Rifle worldwide and set standards for competition internationally to enable a level field of play at Regional and World Championships. Originating in 2019, the IPRF has grown in leaps and bounds with nations committing to set up their international structures as the precision rifle sport matures in each country.

Growing globally, the IPRF has competitors from five continents and 25 participating countries.
