\"\"(Grand Island, NE) Team Hornady relied on accurate and consistent Hornady bullets and ammo to score key wins at the 2011 Rocky Mountain 3-Gun and 2011 USPSA Area 3 Championships.<\/p>\n

The 2011 JP Enterprises Rocky Mountain 3-Gun Championship (RM3G) was held August 4-6, at the NRA Whittington Center in Raton, N.M. Over 280 competitors from 20 states competed in nine challenging stages designed to shake comfort levels, and test skill and physical limits at an elevation of 6,600 feet. Match designers Denise and JJ Johnson used the dusty and rocky foothill terrain of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains to obscure targets with prickly pears, pine trees, washed out gullies and fallen limbs. Pistol targets were set from 2 to 50 yards, with long-range rifle targets from 2 to 600 yards.<\/p>\n

Team Hornady used Hornady HAP\u00ae bullets, A-MAX\u00ae bullets, and Steel Match\u2122 ammo to score several spots on the RM3G winner\u2019s podium:
\n\u2022 1st Place Heavy Metal Scoped Division: Adam Popplewell
\n\u2022 1st Place Open Division: Michael Voigt
\n\u2022 1st Place Ladies Open Division: Maggie Reese
\n\u2022 1st Place Heavy Metal Irons Division: Rob Romero
\n\u2022 3rd Place Heavy Metal Scoped Division: Tate Moots<\/p>\n

Making the most of their home field advantage, Team Hornady\u00ae won the Open and Limited Divisions of the 2011 USPSA Area 3 Regional Handgun Championship, held August 11-14, at the Heartland Public Shooting Park in Grand Island, Neb. Area 3 is the Central Midwest region of the USPSA; one of eight shooting regions in the country. More than 300 of the nation\u2019s top competitors traveled to Grand Island from 40 states to demonstrate their best talents.<\/p>\n

Known for pushing competitors beyond their normal limits, match director and stage designer Sherwyn Greenfield created stages that put skills to the test. \u201cI enjoy designing a stage that will be intricate yet deceivingly easy,\u201d said Greenfield. \u201cIt forces competitors to concentrate and makes them work to execute the stage properly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Team Hornady used HAP\u00ae and XTP\u00ae handgun bullets to win impressive USPSA Area 3 results:
\n\u2022 1st Place Open Division: Max Michel (title defender)
\n\u2022 1st Place Limited Division: Blake Miguez
\n\u2022 2nd Place Open Division: Nic Neel<\/p>\n
