PRS Centerfire Match – Cascina Legra, Italy

MDT-supported shooter Vincent “Vin” Muehlleitner secured 1st place, marking his first-ever match win. The match served as a national Italian qualifier for the IPRF World Championship. Vin shared his thoughts: “The ITPRA hosted one of their few centerfire matches, which was also a national Italian qualifier for the IPRF World Championship. Despite fewer shooters than usual, the course of fire was excellent, and the tricky winds made it a very challenging match. The props were perfectly stable and well thought out—except the tires, which really messed up one stage for me, like they always do! I made a few mistakes but still managed to stay on top by 3 points. This is my first match win ever, so it’s something I’ll always remember.”

2025 MDT Hunter Challenge – Arbuckle, California

MDT-sponsored shooter Jon Pynch took 1st place in Teams, showcasing expert-level field shooting. Team MDT shooter Brian Neace took 2nd place in Light Open, while Jacob Reister secured 3rd place in Open Light.
