Recently, the Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) played host to the 2025 USA Shooting Winter Air Gun Championships, held over the weekend of Dec. 12-14 at the Gary Anderson CMP Competition Center in Port Clinton, Ohio.
The CMP welcomed nearly 300 air rifle and air pistol athletes from around the country for the annual match, held simultaneously in Ohio and at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs.
USA Shooting is the National Governing Body for the international shooting sports in the United States. The Winter Air Gun Championships (WAG) serves as a selection match for ranking points toward USA Shooting’s national team ranking and remains a central competition for seasoned athletes as well as those hoping to advance their competitive prowess.
“We were honored to facilitate one of the most prestigious air gun events of the year at our Camp Perry range,” said Brad Donoho, CMP’s International Programs Manager. “USA Shooting is the paramount organization for our nation’s status in international marksmanship activities, and we are more than happy to provide them with any support we can in promoting competitive opportunities for the community of athletes within the sport.”
WAG follows a 60-shot course of fire plus an elimination final, with the last standing athletes reaching the awards podium. Top juniors were presented medals for their performances at each location along with the leading overall competitors.
Congratulations to all those taking part, especially for the winners listed below!
