About

ARMPRF brings together the shooters, coaches and range organisers working on long-range precision rifle in Armenia. We run matches, maintain one common rulebook, and publish every result.

Our goals

1
Grow the sport
Establish precision rifle in Armenia as a disciplined, regulated sport with a season, divisions and standards.
2
Train competent riflemen
Safe, ethical, technically competent shooters, with safety always ahead of score.
3
Transparent matches
Run verifiable matches with open rules and published, verified results.
4
Build the infrastructure
Build and maintain proper long-range ranges: safe firing lines, target fields and facilities.
5
An affordable way in
Use .22LR rimfire as the cheap, safe entry path into the sport, including for juniors.
6
Represent Armenia
Prepare Armenian shooters for, and represent Armenia at, international precision rifle competition.
7
Ethical hunting
Support ethical hunting standards and marksmanship education: know your limit, take the clean shot.

Safety first

Safety is not something we compete on. At any ARMPRF match the muzzle stays in a safe direction, the bolt stays out and the chamber stays empty except between the commands to load and unload. A gross safety violation means immediate removal from the match, with no appeal.
