Tac-22 Wins 3rd Overall at Lonestar Rimfire Challenge
Written by Trenton Mitsuoka
Norma-USA's precision manufacturing never lets me down.
I just returned from Terrell, Texas after competing in the NSSF Lonestar Rimfire Challenge held April 30th, 2016.
Rimfire Challenge is a competitive event emphasizing speed and accuracy with both a .22 handgun and rifle hence, the designation “rimfire” in the name. The challenge is to shoot an array of 5-7 steel plates as fast as you can. It also means your ammo must be reliable and work flawlessly in a pistol and a rifle. Norma-USA's Tac-22 works beautifully for both of my guns.
The day before the match, a severe thunderstorm passed through the area, with a tornado watch in effect. Luckily, the storm passed through and we were able to have a great match.

The best part of shooting Rimfire Challenge is the great group of people you get to meet. It is family friendly; it is common to see entire families out shooting at the events. Not many sports can have 3 generations of a family participating in the same sport. Grandparents, parents and grandchildren can compete along side one another. There are divisions for the various age groups. My Dad, Chris Mitsuoka, was fortunate enough to win 2nd place in the Senior Division.
