Shooting USA

Shooting USA --(Ammoland.com)- Shooting USA’s Impossible Shots – The Long Distance Top Five

Cisko attempts his ultimate long-range shot: fast draw, from the hip, on the timer, from an unheard-of 100 yards away!

It’s a shot that would double Cisko’s personal best of 50 yards. But will it be enough to get him on the list of all-time best? As Cisko pushes his limits, we’ll count down the greatest long distance shots ever recorded. Classic Shots from Bob, Jerry, Cisko, Randy, and even the Old Sniper will be revisited on this special edition of Impossible Shots.

Shooting USA – The Steel Challenge & NRA Disabled Shooting Clinic
It’s your last chance to see how it’s done, in the high desert of California, before this year’s competion to see who is the fastest in the hand gun version of drag racing. It’s the purest form of gun racing – draw and shoot five steel targets for time. Three days of competition at the Steel Challenge will crown a world champion.

Plus the story of Dr. Richard Gatling and his invention that he thought would put an end to war. But that’s not how it worked out for the famous Gatling that’s now one of History’s Guns.

Then meet the people behind the NRA’s Disabled Shooting Services at a clinic teaching marksmanship for the handicapped. More Info…

Beretta USA Proud Partner of USA Shooting

Beretta DT10 Trident Shot Guns

Beretta USA

ACCOKEEK, MD --(AmmoLand.com)- Beretta U.S.A. announced today its partnership with USA Shooting, the national governing body for Olympic Shooting Sports.

USA Shooting oversees the development of U.S. National Teams that compete in international competition on behalf of the United States.

Beretta U.S.A., as a partner of USA Shooting, will be providing a variety of shotguns under Beretta’s Range Program for use by visiting and resident athletes as well as by youth participating in shooting camps hosted by the organization. These guns include the Beretta DT10 Trident, 682 Gold E and the Beretta Teknys models.

These models are the same as those used by Olympic Gold Medalists Vincent Hancock, Dan Carlisle, Glenn Eller III and National Champion and Olympic team member Haley Dunn. Beretta’s competition shotguns are used at the sport’s highest level, and this new range program partnership will allow all athletes at USA Shooting to experience the superior technology and performance found in Beretta competition shotguns.

The partnership goes beyond providing guns to the organization. Beretta also will be manufacturing a special USA Shooting shotgun model. This limited edition shotgun will be made at Beretta’s U.S.A. facility and will be available at certain retail locations later this year. A portion of the purchase price will go to USA Shooting.

“We’re very excited about this partnership and the opportunity to work with USA Shooting. Beretta is recognized worldwide for its success in the shooting sports, and we are delighted with our relationship with USA Shooting. Both entities exemplify excellence and winning in the world of competitive shooting,” said Gary Ramey, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Beretta U.S.A.
