The Precision Rifle Series (PRS) is honored to announce Garmin, a leading provider of precision-shooting technology, as the official Chronograph and Ballistic Smartwatch Provider for the 2025 season. As an Affiliate Sponsor, Garmin will collaborate with PRS to support local, regional and national shooting competitions and promote the growth of practical, long-range disciplines. Known for its cutting-edge technology, Garmin and its products have long been a staple in the world of precision shooting, and their sponsorship with PRS will empower the organization to continue to provide local, regional, and national matches for the growth of practical, long-range disciplines.

“We are excited to welcome Garmin as an official affiliate sponsor and the official ballistic smartwatch provider of the 2025 PRS season,” said Ken Wheeler, Director of the Precision Rifle Series. “Garmin's innovative approach to integrating technology into the world of precision shooting makes them the perfect fit for our community. Their smartwatches provide real-time ballistic data, which is essential for competitors looking to gain a competitive edge.”

The Garmin Xero® C1 Pro Chronograph is a game-changer for the Precision Rifle Series (PRS) community, allowing shooters to accurately measure projectile speeds from 100 fps to 5,000 fps. The device tracks shots and provides essential data like minimum, maximum and average speed, as well as extreme spread and standard deviation. When paired with the ShotView™ smartphone app, Xero C1 Pro provides users with an in-depth look at historical shooting data. With an IPX7 water-resistant rating, the chronograph is built to endure tough conditions, and its battery life supports up to 2,000 shots or 6 hours of continual use, ensuring plenty of time at the range. This rugged, high-tech tool is essential for PRS competitors looking to optimize their shooting precision.

Garmin’s line of high-performance smartwatches, like the tactix® 8 and Instinct® Tactical series, are designed for rugged outdoor use and provide features for competitive marksmen including advanced ballistic calculators to help make accurate shots at extreme distances. These play a vital role for PRS competitors, helping them push the boundaries of long-range shooting.

Thanks to integrated Applied Ballistic® solvers, Garmin’s tactical smartwatches provide competitors with essential tools like wind speed, environmental data, and ballistic calculations, all at the wrist for instant access. With rugged durability, long battery life, and highly accurate data, Garmin smartwatches ensure that PRS competitors are always prepared, no matter the shooting conditions.
