Remember.

Our mission is to protect and preserve our Second Amendment right to bear arms and to promote and preserve the shooting sports, the safe use and storage of fi****ms, and the principles of marksmanship and self-defense. Check out your local clubs for opportunities to compete.

Precision Pistol is a competitive bullseye shooting discipline. An excellent way for a new shooter to learn more is to contact a local club hosting matches.

Precision, also known as Bullseye pistol, are competitions that includes slow-fire, 10 shots in 10 minutes; timed-fire, two five-shot strings in 20 seconds; and rapid-fire, two five-shot strings in 10 seconds. This 30-shot course of fire is called a National Match Course or NMC.

Events are multiples of the NMC, such as 30-, 60-, or 90-shot matches. Three 90-shot matches are a 2700 match, 270 shots fired, usually on the same day.
