Who We Are

Who is the USPRA?

The International Precision Rifle Federation (IPRF) was created to establish an international organization and standards of precision rifle competition for regional and world championship events.

The US Precision Rifle Association (USPRA) is an affiliate organization of the IPRF representing the United States. With the variety of successful shooting sports and events in the US, the primary mission of the USPRA is organizing and selecting a US team for representation at IPRF international events.
