#PrecisionRifleShooting

PRS shooters demand a lot out of their gear and a lot of the time that gear is extremely specialized. With that in mind, a new company, XOF Industries, is excited to announce the launch of not only their company but also their first product specifically designed for precision rifle shooters – the XOF E.R.R. or Extended Rifle Rail. This long section of aluminum Arca-Swiss compatible rail is designed to fit virtually any flat-bottomed tactical and hunting rifle stocks.

In the Legacy Sports International booth at the 2018 SHOT Show Industry Day at the Range, Australian company Lithgow Arms brought out their precision rifle series dark horse, the LA105 Woomera. Based on the excellent Lithgow LA102 bolt action rifle platform, the LA105 features a custom American chassis from Kinetic Research Group. With a polymer exterior, the rifle combines the rigidity of an aluminum chassis with the good thermal characteristics of a polymer stock (read: your skin doesn’t stick to it in cold weather).

If you’re a serious long-range rifleman, you might be interested in the PRS – Precision Rifle Series. The PRS is a series of competitions for the other PRS – Precision Rifle Shooting. The series has a fantastic reputation and is known for pitting some of our nation’s most talented marksmen against one another. Of course, PRS isn’t just any competition shoot, it’s tactical. There is not a set course for these competitions; the course is designed at the discretion of each competition’s host. Distance for shots could be anywhere between 300 yards and 1000 yards with an emphasis on farther out and more difficult to take, of course. Shots are taken from a wide variety of perches including from atop nets, within hovering helicopters; if it adds an adrenaline-pumping level of difficulty to making that long-range shot, you’re probably going to find it in a PRS competition.
