Grand Island, NE — Team Hornady® sponsored shooters Andrew Hyder, Jessie Harrison, and Sherwyn Greenfield for their performance at the USPSA Area 3 Championships, August 12-13, 2023 in Grand Island, Nebraska.

Hornady sponsored shooter Andrew Hyder secured a 2nd place finish in the Open division shooting Hornady 9mm 125 gr. HAP® bullets loaded into Hornady cases. Teammates Jessie Harrison won Top Lady, and Sherwyn Greenfield took top Super Senior, both using 9mm 125 gr. HAP bullets.

“The Hornady Area 3 Championship was very challenging this year,” said Hyder. “At this match, you can always expect to take some longer shots, making accuracy super important, that’s why I shoot Hornady!”, he added.

Modeled after the legendary XTP® bullet design, HAP bullets are further refined into the perfect competition projectile. While XTP bullets use serrations to aid in controlled expansion and terminal performance, HAP bullets feature a sleek and balanced projectile with a protected nose that aids in consistent and reliable feeding in auto loading pistols.

Bullet jackets, featuring industry leading concentricity combined with precision swaged cores, deliver the very best in accuracy and performance.
