The 2024 Pyramyd Cup will feature top-tier competitions, including the precision-driven 100 yard Benchrest, the action-packed Gunslynger showdown, and the World Class Field Target competition. As always, top airgunners from around the world will gather to test their skills and vie for top prizes.

John McCaslin, President of AirForce Airguns, stated: “We are excited to sponsor this year’s Pyramyd Cup. We are grateful to Val Gamerman, the owner of Pyramyd Air for graciously hosting this event and bringing the airgun community together for [a great] event.”

Field Target Discipline Is Challenging
“Field Target is one of the most difficult shooting disciplines out there,” says recent Pyramyd Air Cup Match Director, Tyler Patner. “Combine the multiple skills required to rise to the top of your game, with the myriad of factors you take into account at each lane, and you’ve got a challenging sport.”

“Targets are small, metal silhouettes of animals that consist of a kill zone and a colored paddle,” explains Pyramyd’s Tyler Patner. “Placed at unknown distances from between 10 yards to as far as 55 yards, the targets have kill-zones ranging in size from 3/8 inch to 1 1/2 inches. When the pellet passes through the kill zone and hits the paddle, the target falls and you’re awarded a point. It’s a game of precision and practice. You range-find with your scope, dope for distance, take the wind into account, and then you have to execute. There are different restrictions based upon your selected class, but the challenges remain the same. Wind-doping, range-finding, and remaining mentally tough over the entire course of fire are the biggest hurdles competitors face.”
