Team Lapua's Brandon Green has once again delivered an outstanding performance, winning the Open Heavy division of the Best of the West Hunter competition.
Held March 6–8 in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, the Best of the West Hunter Championship challenged shooters across 20 simulated hunting stages with target engagements ranging from 200 yards to over 900 yards. The rugged range incorporates rocky bluffs, wooded draws, and diverse terrain, pushing competitors to accurately engage life‑size targets including wolf, bighorn sheep, moose, black bear, whitetail deer, hog, coyote, mountain lion, bobcat, turkey, elk, antelope, mule deer, otter, raccoon, rock chuck, squirrel, lynx, prairie dog, and jackrabbit.
Green, who has already secured three NRL Hunter match wins this season, credited both the match design and his equipment for the successful outing.
"I find the NRL game has its unique challenges along with really fun courses of fire. Having confidence in your equipment and ammunition gives you the ability to focus on the task at hand and that's the key to having a strong performance. My 260 Remington AI platform loaded with Berger 144 Grain Long Range Hybrid Target bullets, Lapua cases, powered with Vihtavuori N160 has been one of the most consistent combinations I've ever seen. I'm very thankful these helped secure the Best of the West Hunter Championship. Thanks again for the great support!"
Lapua celebrates Green's continued success and looks forward to following his momentum throughout the remainder of the 2026 NRL Hunter season.
