Junior Progressive Position Air Pistol National Championships

The Progressive Position Pistol National Championship program is a dual venue National Championship that will incorporate two of the premier shooting facilities in the country, with the Colorado Springs Olympic Shooting Center and the U.S. Army's Marksmanship Unit (USAMU) in Ft. Benning, Ga., being utilized as concurrent venues of competition.

Learn more information about the competition and how to register for the PPP National Championships here. The PPP rule book can be found here. The PPP match competition is a precision pistol event. Multi-shot pistols may be used, but only a single pellet may be loaded at any given moment. The pistols must be .177 caliber (4.5 mm), and use compressed air or compressed, non-flammable gas (such as CO2) for propellant. Read a guide to the NRA Junior Progressive Pistol Program here.

There are three categories of competitors in the Progressive Position Pistol Program, defined by the shooting position used by the competitor. They include basic supported, standing supported and international (one-handed) standing. For directions on how to build a T-stand (to be used in the Basic Supported Position and/or in the Standing Supported Position), check out this guide.
