World champion in Unlimited Benchrest with new World Record 730 points and 28 X
We would like to congratulate the new World champion in the Unlimited Airrifle Benchrest 50m in Finland 2025, Mr. Giovanni Atzeni. Mr. Atzeni is not only the new World champion in Unlimited Benchrest, but also made new World Record 730 points and 28 X
In addition to his own success, he led the Italian team to first place in the Unlimited Airgun Benchrest team competition, thanks to his personal result and also sharing his perfectly tuned shooting system (airgun and slug) with his two team shooters, who took 4th and 5th place with 730 and 727 points, respectively, a difference of only X in the first case. We are very proud that Mr. Atzeni and his team have placed their trust in our ATP King 40 gr 5.52 and we are glad that we could be part of his success.
The Italian team took first place with a commanding lead of almost 50 points against the second team from South Africa. Congratulations also to the South African shooters for their second place, with the first two shooters in particular delivering an amazing shooting performance.
And of course, congratulations to the Lebanon team for their third place, who had very consistent results, and we are also pleased that the Lebanon team also used our ATP King slugs. We would also like to congratulate all the top 10 competitors, as the results were very close and high, considering that the shooting range was windy and we are pleased that 50% of the top 10 shooters chose our ATP King 40gr slugs.
From the information we receive from shooters, other shooters outside the top 10 often used our slugs. We would also thank these shooters for placing their trust in our slugs.
