Two-Rifle Precision Tactical Match This Weekend in New Mexico
The 2025 Precision Tactical 2-Rifle Match runs this weekend, April 26–27, 2025 at the NRA Whittington Center in Coal Canyon, New Mexico. This unique event challenges competitors with eight dynamic stages designed to test their skills with two rifles — an AR-15 (.223 Rem/5.56 NATO) and a precision rifle (.223 Rem to .300 WinMag). This event is challenging — shooters must carry all their gear including bipods, packs, rangefinders, slings, and optics. The stages are quite varied, with everything from close rapid-fire challenges to 1,000-yard precision shots. Match stages include both field and stationary formats. Competitors transition between rifles while managing gear, movement, target acquisition, and time limits.
The NRA Whittington Center, nestled in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in New Mexico, provides a world-class backdrop for this tactical challenge. Match directors state: The “Two-rifle match at the NRA Whittington Center in Coal Canyon is a rugged and demanding shooting competition set against a stunning New Mexico backdrop. The event is designed for competitors looking to put their skills to the test. Competitors will tackle eight stages across two days, each crafted to challenge their proficiency with two different rifles. These stages require shooters to adapt to various positions and distances. The natural terrain adds to the excitement of the match.”
Advanced Optics with HUD and Custom Ballistic Profiles
Among the high-tech gear being used in this match is the new Burris XTR Precision Shooter (XTR PS) riflescope. Available in 3-18x50mm and 5.5-30x56mm models, XTR PS has a Programmable Elevation Knob (PĒK) system. Even more impressive, this optic boasts an integrated HUD (“Heads Up Display”). The digital HUD delivers real-time data — elevation, wind hold, angle compensation, and countdown timer. The scope’s HUD works with custom ballistic profiles via the BurrisConnect™ App.
