Bushnell Competitive Shooters Take Top Spots at US Steel Nationals

OVERLAND PARK, Kansas – – Bushnell team shooters Jessie Harrison and KC Eusebio continued their dominance in the competitive shooting sports this past week at the 2019 U.S. Steel National Championship in Covington, Georgia. Eusebio took first place in both the Carry Optics and Rimfire Pistol divisions, while Harrison won the Overall Single Stack division and the Ladies Open division—marking her 9th Ladies Open National Title.

Harrison is the first female shooter to achieve Grand Master status with the U.S. Practical Shooting Association (USPSA) and boasts an impressive list of accolades across five shooting disciplines, including multiple World and National Champion shooting titles. Among these are the prestigious Bianchi Cup and the World Speed Shooting Championships.

“Capturing the Ladies Open title this year is exciting since it’s my first season with the First Strike 2.0 and I was able to prove it in competition,” Harrison said. “I look forward to the rest of the season and the future with the Bushnell team!”

Meanwhile Eusebio, a five-time World Speed Shooting Champion and six-time Open National Speed Shooting Champion, set a new National Record Overall time of 78.27 as he became the first person to break the 80-second barrier with a Carry Optics pistol.

"This is my first season competing with the First Strike 2.0 and I'm in love with my new red dot,” Eusebio said. “This optic has given me the confidence to shoot at the highest level and I can't wait to set new records with my Bushnell FS2.

“This National victory is a great start to the 2019 shooting season and I'm proud to be a part of the Bushnell family."
