Sedalia, MO – Team Lapua had a strong showing at the American Rimfire Association (ARA) portion of the Triple Crown Area 3 Unlimited Tournament, held on Saturday, May 24th, at the Kettlefoot Rod & Gun Club in Bristol, Virginia. Maddisyn Reed secured 3rd place, while teammate Bryan Brandt took 2nd place with a total aggregate score of 2201.67-51X.

The Triple Crown Championships saw 89 competitors, with Bryan Brandt securing second place in the PSL Segment, a three-card portion of the nine-card Triple Crown match. Brandt attributed his strong finish to his reliable equipment, specifically his Lapua Midas +. "We had a great weekend in Bristol at the Triple Crown," said Brandt. "I wouldn't have been able to finish strong in the events without the confidence I have in my equipment and in my Lapua Midas +."

Maddisyn Reed, also competing with Lapua's Midas +, broke the IR 50/50 Inc record in the ARA portion of the Triple Crown with an impressive score of 291-18X. She also noted a significant achievement in the X-out 300 sanction: "I also shot the second highest score ever recorded for the X-out 300 sanction, and it was broken by the highest standing score on the same relay! So, it is a world record for the second highest ever shot in the sanction, barely broken. It is an honor and privilege to be a member of team Lapua!"

Brandt and Reed’s Midas + ammunition was matched to their rifles at Lapua’s Rimfire Performance Center. Unique lots of ammunition are tested at 50 and 100 meters simultaneously, identifying the best performing ammunition for purchase. This service is available to any shooter who wishes to gain a competitive advantage. Schedule your testing at either of Lapua’s Rimfire Performance Centers located in Mesa, AZ, or Marengo, OH.
