The 2024 IPRF World Championship is upon us. Held at Cameo Shooting Centre, Grand Junction, Colorado, from September 11th-17th, the World Championship pits the best precision rifle shooters from represented countries against each other. For those unfamiliar with the IPRF, their website states, "The International Precision Rifle Federation 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." And with 28 participating countries, the IPRF is succeeding in its mission.

Team MDT, Supported Shooters, and MDT staff will be heading to Colorado for the signature event. As a leader in the precision rifle world, MDT is well represented, with athletes hailing from the United States, United Kingdom, Ireland, and Canada. These athletes will compete in the Open, Open Ladies, Open Senior, Mil/LEO Open, and Limited divisions. From Team MDT, Daniel Gibbons, Rory Gibbons, Ryan Charlton, Joe Pask, Dave Gheriani, Allision Zane, Rusty Ulmer, and Chad Heckler will represent their home countries. Alongside Team MDT, Alan Homer, Nick Bazzone, Ryan Mclean, Josh Both, and Paige Koster will also be sending copper and lead down range in hopes of clinching a victory for their respective countries!
