Tune in this week for the dawn of a new era in practical shooting-the 3-Gun Nation Pro Series Tour. The first professional tournament series in action shooting, the 3GN Pro Series Tour features an exclusive field of the top 64 shooters in the sport, all competing for the largest cash payouts in 3-gun and a slot in the season-ending 3-Gun Nation Championship in Las Vegas, where one shooter will be crowned champion and take home $50,000, sponsored in part by Leupold Tactical Optics.
This week, the field converges on St. Augustine, Florida, the first stop on the 2012-2013 FNH USA 3GN Tour, Presented by Federal Premium. Top pros Daniel Horner, Jerry Miculek, Taran Butler and more battle the field in the inaugural 3GN Pro Series match, a made-for-television course of fire that presents a dizzying array of challenges, featuring arguably the fastest stages in all of 3-gun.
