2009 Sniper's Hide Cup Preview

We are only 1 day away from the start of the 2009 Sniper's Hide Cup down here at Rifles Only. Today we finished up the match Train - Up that started on Sunday afternoon. The shooters had some really great weather and heavy dose of the fundamentals of marksmanship in order to prepare them for the match.

The Sniper's Hide Cup is the premier tactical rifle match pitting some of the best shooters from around the world. Held at Rifles Only in Kingsville Texas and sponsored by some of the biggest names in the industry like GA Precision, Badger Ordnance, Nightforce, US Optics, S&B Cor Bon, just to name a few, 60+ shooters will compete from Thursday to Saturday.

Here are some images from the train up, as the days progress I will upload some more images and information from the match.
