But our framework can potentially save you money and time by narrowing the list of candidates you might try in your own gun, and you can also follow our system to see if a given round performs for you like it did for us.

NRA National Police Shooting Championship

NRA National Police Shooting Championship Set for Sept. 20-24

ALBUQUERQUE, NM — The National Rifle Association will hold the 47th National Police Shooting Championships (NPSC) at the Shooting Range Park in Albuquerque, NM September 20-24, 2009.

This year’s competition should prove to be especially spirited as defending champion Robert Vadasz, a Senior Agent with the U.S. Border Patrol, faces the return of Mississippi Highway Patrol Captain Philip Hemphill – a 9-time champ.

More than 400 officers from federal, state, municipal and private agencies, as well as four foreign countries, are expected to compete in this year’s tournament.

“The National Police Shooting Championship is a gathering of the finest law enforcement shooters from around the world,” said NRA President Ron Schmeits. “There is no better place for these everyday heroes to test their skills than right here in New Mexico.”

NPSC utilizes real law enforcement shooting skills. Competitors start with guns holstered and fire timed matches with both revolvers and semi-automatic pistols from varying distances and positions. The aggregate scores from the revolver and semi-automatic pistol matches are used to crown a national champion.
