Bourgeois, Perkowski Lead CMP’s Regional Three-Position Air Rifle Events In April

During the month of April, the Civilian Marksmanship Program’s (CMP) annual Three-Position Regional Air Rifle events were fired, with over 450 talented junior athletes aiming for a trip to Ohio for the Three-Position National Championship in June and July.

The CMP Three-Position Regional events were fired in Ohio, Alabama and Utah. Shown here is the CMP's mobile range set up in Utah.

Each Regional match is a 3×20 (three-position) air rifle competition, where sporter and precision class athletes from 4-H, Scouts, American Legion, club or JROTC rifle programs fire 20 shots at three positions: prone, standing and kneeling. Three separate matches were held at CMP venues around the country, including the Gary Anderson CMP Competition Center at Camp Perry, Ohio, the CMP’s south air gun range at the South Competition Center in Anniston, Ala., as well as through the use of its Mobile Range in Sandy, Utah.

Qualifiers for the National competition are chosen from the overall scores from the combined regions.
