It’s true! EBR 2019 will have the highest Extreme Benchrest prize money ever. The total value of the prizes to be awarded will be over $34,000, according to Airguns of Arizona.
Claudio Flores from Chile was the winner of the 2018 Extreme Benchrest Pro class (above). Who will win the top prize this year?
As always, there’s a limit to the number of shooters who can participate in this famous annual airgun shooting event. So, if you want to stand a chance of winning your share of this huge prize pot, be aware that registration is now opened. You can sign-up online to attend Extreme Benchrest 2019 at this page.
And HAM has been informed that the first 120 contestants to register for EBR 2019 will receive a free PhoneSkope riflescope adapter – a $175 value. That represents a $21,000 value above and beyond the highest Extreme Benchrest prize money ever!
Extreme Benchrest 2019 will take place from October 10 – 13. The venue will be the Rio Salado Shooting Range in Mesa AZ, the range that has hosted EBR for several years past.
The format of the competition will be familiar to many, but has some interesting new twists. Of course, there will be the 100 Yard Extreme Benchrest competition itself. There’s also a 50 yard Benchrest open class and 50 yard Benchrest Spring class.
Then there’s the Speed Silhouette and two Big Bore challenges, too. Plus the American Field Target competition. Oh, and an indoor pistol competition, too…
As usual, competitors for each course of fire are divided into “Pro” and “Sportsmans” classes. This gives the maximum opportunity for prize-winning, particularly for new competitors.
The One Gun Challenge is an additional attraction. For this, shooters must use the same gun, in the same caliber, with the same scope. Prizewinners will have the highest combined scores from the EBR, 50 Yard Benchrest, Speed Silhouette and American Field Target competitions.
