June 6th– June 9th, the Rocky Mountain Airgun Challenge brought 160 shooters from 14 different countries together for the largest airgun competition in the world. Shooters competed in 10 different events ranging from 25M benchrest, speed challenge courses, to 100M benchrest.
We’d like to congratulate Matt Dubber on his 2019 Rocky Mountain Airgun Challenge performance. Using an Athlon Ares ETR, Matt walked away with more than $8,000 for his 1st place finish in the Precision Marksman Challenge, 1st place in the Speed Challenge, 3rd place benchrest, and 3rd place in smallbore slug divisions.
Matt Dubber has made the trek from his home in South Africa to Utah several times now, placing 1st in the Precision Rifle Course-Pro Class at the 2018 Rocky Mountain Airgun Challenge as well. In 2019 Matt made the change to Athlon. This was Matt’s first outing with an Athlon Optics riflescope, making the change when he arrived in the US just before the match.
Matt has one of the most watched airgun channels on Youtube. With over 275,000 subscribers and 1.5 million views monthly. Tune in to his channel for coverage of the 2019 Rocky Mountain Sniper Challenge and videos soon-to-feature Athlon Optics.
