The TRT Sniper Challenge is a 2-day, 2-man team sniper match held at Thorson Ranch Training. Designed for competitive shooters, military and law enforcement snipers, and hardened civilians, this event combines high-tempo shooting with real-world decision-making. Expect PRS-style known-distance speed shoots blended with blind stages where target detection, ranging, and communication are tested under pressure.
This is not a ruck march, but you’ll be carrying all your gear and solving complex stage problems over two days in cold-weather terrain. No hand-holding; some stages leave execution entirely up to the team.
