New Zealand’s most accurate rifles go head-to-head at 300 metres.
The Tack Driver Showdown is an annual one-of-a-kind, all comers, shooting tournament. This match will reveal the most accurate cartridge, rifle and shooter combination, at least out to 300 metres.
The 6PPC and 30BR are king in short range benchrest. Cartridges in 7mm are leading F-Class, while 6 and 6.5mm’s dominate PRS. Precision hunting rigs are using various cartridges up to 30 calibre. They will all go head-to-head in this multi-discipline rifle match!
Tack Driver targets will be placed at 300 meters (328 yards). This should be far enough that the higher BC bullets used by today’s competition and modern hunting rifles come into play. The Tack Driver’s course of fire demands competitors demonstrate both precision and accuracy by switching between Group and Score targets. The Group target provides a test of precision, measuring only the group size. Meanwhile, the Score target demands accuracy with the goal of hitting 5 separate, 1 inch bullseyes.
There can be only one Champion! Will it be you taking home the silverware?
Entry to the tournament will open in August and registration will be online only, via Humanitix ticketing. Limited to the first 18 registrations.
