East Alton, IL (August 20, 2024)— Becky and Sean Yackley of Team Winchester both earned medals last week while representing the USA at the 2024 IPSC Rifle World Shoot in Oulu, Finland.
Competition was fierce with more than 800 competitors from around the globe gathering to shoot 30 stages over the course of the five-day event.
Becky competed as part of the U.S. Ladies Open Team, earning the gold medal honors for the third time. The team maintained a balance between speed and accuracy to take top honors in their division.
Sean Yackley competed as part of the USA Men’s Standard Team meaning that they choose to shoot with non-magnified sights which makes distant shots particularly challenging. Team USA was up for the challenge however and earned the Silver Medal within their division.
“With targets ranging from 10-385 yards, accuracy is a must,” said Becky Yackley. “We used Winchester USA Ready, White Box FMJ as well as Winchester Reloading Components throughout the event for dependable performance at all ranges.”
