Grand Island, NE — Hornady® congratulates sponsored shooters Clay Blackketter and Lauryl Akenhead for their performance at the Koenig-Ruger Precision Rifle Competition PRS match, April 12-13, 2025, in Grand Junction, Colorado.

Blackketter took first place in the Open Division using Hornady 25 cal. 138 gr. A-Tip® Match bullets and Akenhead, took first place in the Factory and Ladies Divisions using Hornady 6mm 110 gr. A-Tip® Match bullets.

“The Koenig-Ruger PRC is an incredibly tough match every year,” said Blackketter. “The new 25 cal 138 gr. A-Tip is THE bullet for PRS shooting, especially in the challenging winds of the west,” he added.

A-Tip® Match bullets feature an aluminum tip that’s precision machined and longer than polymer tips, that moves the center of gravity and enhances inflight stability, resulting in tighter groups and reduced drag variability. In addition, A-Tip bullets are sequentially packaged for the ultimate in consistent performance.
