Long range/orienteering/speed competition...

[PJ14962]

Good evening,

Is there any kind of competitive event out there that combines multiple movements (like a course) with map and compass to get to a shooting location, locate the correct target, and then hit it from long range before proceeding to the next location and target?

I was having a similar thought. I was thinking of a running/long-range shooting biathlon after watching a Youtube video on the Vortex Optics Extreme event (https://vortexoptics.com/vortex-extreme-registration-2019.html).

That looks fun. Thank you for sharing.

I think if I get mine together, rule #1 is going to be no shorts.

These are Run and Gun events although not necessary long range shots and the course is short only 5 or 10 Km. But they are certainly challanging.

Thank you. I'll check those out. I'm not a race director, but I'll let you know if I ever get something together.
