Champion Traps & Targets Will Host Bryan Nikes at NRA Annual Meeting & Exhibits

OVERLAND PARK, Kansas - April 25, 2017 - Champion Traps & Targets, makers of interactive and challenging target systems, welcomes long-range shooting expert Bryan Sikes to the Vista Outdoor booth (#2542) at the 2017 NRA Meetings and Exhibits Show in Atlanta, Georgia, April 27 to 30.

Sikes, a recently retired active duty Special Operations Sniper of 11 years, is a highly respected competitive precision rifle shooter, instructor and gunsmith who draws on experiences from multiple combat deployments and years of competitive shooting to bring out the best shooter in everyone. He is an ambassador for Champion's new AR500 Steel Targets.

The new Champion Center Mass AR500 Steel Targets are designed for years of fun at the range. The precision, laser-cut, premium rolled and hardened AR500 steel can withstand a serious pounding from multiple calibers at appropriate distances. They are made in the U.S.A. and feature square holes for perfect mounting using 1/2-inch carriage bolts. The centerfire rifle rated targets are 3/8-inch thick and the centerfire pistol rated targets are 1/4-inch thick.

Sikes will host a product demonstration from 10-11 a.m. on Saturday, April 29.

NRA show attendees are encouraged to stop by the Vista Outdoor booth (#2542) to visit with Sikes and other hunting and shooting sports celebrities, and learn more about Champion's latest products.
