Mesa, AZ – Congratulations to Team Lapua's Ryan Sponauer for his 2nd Place finish at the AZ State Smallbore Prone Championship this past weekend at Ben Avery Shooting Complex in Phoenix, AZ. Sponauer is the Test Center Specialist for the Lapua Rimfire Performance Center just a few miles away in Mesa, Arizona.
The AZ State Smallbore Prone Championship was hosted by Desert Sharpshooters Rifle Club this past Saturday, January 10th and featured 160 rounds fired at 50 and 100 yards. Competitors shared that the weather was very uncharacteristic for the Grand Canyon State, cutting the two-day match down to one day. Cooler temperatures and winds gusting to 30-mph created some challenging conditions.
Sponauer shared, "The challenging weather with shifting and gusting winds made for an interesting weekend. Through our lot testing procedures, I was able to identify an excellent performing lot of Lapua Midas+ ammunition which clearly provided an advantage in the adverse conditions."
Competitors interested in testing Lapua Rimfire Ammunition, should contact the Lapua Rimfire Performance Center and ask for Ryan @ 480-898-2731, or email rimfiretest@capstonepg.com today to visit either the Ohio or Arizona test facilities.
