Oliver Milanovic Wins NRA High Power |
With a score of 1245-73X, Oliver Milanovic is this year's NRA National High Power Rifle Long-Range National Champion and winner of the Tompkins Trophy. Classified as a High Master, Milanovic's score also garnered him the High Palma Rifle award. The match was conducted Aug. 14–19 at Camp Atterbury, Ind., the new home of the NRA National Matches. The NRA Championships—Pistol, Smallbore Rifle and High Power Rifle—kicked off in July with the First Lady of Indiana, Janet Holcomb, firing the ceremonial first shot. Hailing from Gilbert, Ariz., Milanovic's Palma .308 Win. gun is an Eliseo chassis with a Borden action, and he also mentioned that he uses 155-grain bullets.
Taking second place was SSG Amanda Elsenboss, formerly with the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit and now competing with the National Guard All Guard Marksmanship Team. Completing the match with a score of 1245-69X, the High Master-class shooter was only a few Xs down from Milanovic. Regular readers will remember when Elsenboss won the 2019 NRA Long-Range Nationals.
