Next season of LONG GONG 2025! This will be a limited series starting in April, brought to you by DOPE PRECISION and the Local Eastern Idaho NRL22 club. This 6-match series will wrap up in September and will test your ability to stretch your rifle’s limits as you strategically try to outwit and outshoot your fellow competitors on targets 300 yards out, from 8” down to 6” down to 4”! All shooters will engage targets from a bench position with 1 rear bag and a forward bipod through 5 strings of 10 rounds for a total of 50 rounds.
For full rules and match information, check out the upcoming event page by clicking here!
The match will be held in the Jackpot format, where the entry fees ($10 cash) of all the competitors will be combined and added to the “pot” where it will be divided among the top shooter and runner up*… So, the more shooters the bigger the pot! Bring your friends! The winner of the series and runners up will be decided by the total percentage (100 points for first, the rest of the scores based on the percentage curve) scores of the 6 matches, dropping the 2 lowest match scores for a best of 4 out of 6. If there is a tie, the winner will be decided by their highest match score. For example, if a shooter wins the match with a 56, his score will be 100. If the second place shooter shoots a 49, his score will be 49/56= .875, or 87.5 points.
WE WILL HAVE A PRIZE TABLE FOR THE SERIES CHAMPION AND RUNNER/S UP!
NOTE: Matches may change dates as the series progresses due to any or all of the following: Director/management availability, Range scheduling conflicts, Time allowance for the match, or extreme/unpredictable weather. Stay tuned to the website and socials for any changes as the series continues!!
* Runner-up payout happens if there is10 or more shooters

Long Gong Series #1
WOW! We had the largest turnout ever for a LONG GONG match to date, with 23 shooters attempting to shoot through the windiest match we have ever had. The wind was so shifty, we even had a wind flag shot in half!!
When it was all said and done, newcomer Scott Bowen with his Marine Red MPA rifle got it done with a score of 33 and a tie breaking string of 11 (One of only 3 double digit scores all day.) Another newcomer David Phillips also shot a 33 and lost the tie breaker to end up 2nd. Both went home with cash money.! Congratulations!
