overview

The 2026 Guardian Long Range – Arkansas runs May 15–17, 2026, at Twisted Barrel Precision in Little Rock, Arkansas. This weekend combines precision rifle competition with a charitable mission supporting children in need.

Friday is optional and includes check-in, open range time, zero and DOPE validation, and non-scored side stages (pistol and NRL Hunter–style). Saturday is an individual precision rifle match, followed by a Sunday team event where squads are paired based on Saturday results, intentionally mixing experience levels to encourage mentoring.

What to expect:

  • 8–10 individual stages Saturday; 5–6 team stages Sunday
  • Known-distance targets from 100 to 1,200 yards.
  • Typical targets average 2–3 MOA with 90–120 second stage times
  • Relaxed ruleset with coaching allowed on the clock
  • Charity raffle, awards, and dinner Saturday evening

This match prioritizes community, learning, and mission over intensity.

Shooter Insight:

If you’re newer to precision rifle, this is one of the few matches where on-the-clock coaching and Sunday team pairing actively work in your favor; show up Friday, validate DOPE early, and lean into the mentoring culture.
