NRL 22 aims to make Precision Rifle Competitions more accessible to all communities. There are not many ranges in American cities where you can shoot at 500 yards or beyond. Most Americans can still access 100-yard shooting ranges within a short drive, and the majority of shooters have a.22 LR. The NRL22 program was designed to allow any facility with a range of 100 yards to host matches. Participants from local NRL22 competitions can attend the National Championship. NRL22 began with four classes: Open, Base (ladies), Young Guns (8-18 years old) and Ladies. Air Rifle is now the fifth class.
