American Smallbore Shooting Association (ASSA) is excited to announce that Lapua has become a major sponsor of the 2018 ASSA Smallbore Championships to be held July 7-13 at the new range at The Cardinal Center in Marengo, OH.
In addition to being a major sponsor for the second consecutive year, Lapua representatives will be present to meet with the competitors, coaches and parents to discuss their extensive lineup of world class ammunition and answer any questions.
Furthermore, the representatives will also be able to provide more information on the new SK flat-nose smallbore match ammunition. The new SK offerings expand their product line, which is known world wide for excellent match grade accuracy at a very appealing price point.
Lapua Midas+ and Center-X ammunition have continued to be the ammunition of choice for top flight competitors achieving podium finishes in smallbore benchrest, prone, 3-position and F-class matches. Combine excellent ammunition with a dedicated testing facility in Mesa, AZ which allows the unique capability to evaluate test lots simultaneously at both 50 and 100 meters is a key factor in winning top honors.
The ASSA leadership is excited to have Lapua as a major sponsor to our annual championships. Their support and passion for competitive shooting in the United States and around the world is reflected in their quality products and constant presence in the winner's circle.
