TEAM GAP PRECISION SHOOTING
Members of Team GAP Precision Shooting have been in the fight for the overall championship since the season kicked off at the first of the year. Using GA Precision Rifles and Bushnell Tactical Elite optics some of the finest shooters in the world have proven that these products are a winning combination in a sport that requires both surgical precision and rugged durability. The competitors must have the skill and the desire to win but they also demand equipment that is equal to the task. The entire team has been using the Elite Tactical ERS 3.5-21x 50mm or XRS 4.5-30x 50mm riflescope paired with either a LMSS 8-40x 60mm Spotter or the Fusion 1-Mile ARC Rangefinding Binoculars for the entire season. Both team members and equipment have been through thousands of rounds in both practice and competition. Team Bushnell Tactical/GA Precision members have competed in freezing rain, snow, sleet, fog, scorching temperatures and high humidity to come out on top in 2014.
Team Captain George Gardner stated, "I couldn't be more proud of both the men and equipment. Team Bushnell/GA Precision are not only great shooters but great people as well".
