The next generation of competitive shooters are increasingly turning to rimfire matches, due to the low cost of entry and the recent jumps in .22LR technology now available to consumers. Long time competitors are also jumping in on the rimfire phenomenon. Rimfire matches are designed to be a fun and safe shooting experience that the entire family can enjoy. Both novice and experienced shooters are welcome to participate at all rimfire competitions—with both action and precision based versions of the sport—rimfire competition has universal appeal.
