The WRABF World Cup Airgun Competition has ended. Unfortunately, the Iranian team was not present in the competition due to the lack of visas. This was a very sad matter, but I personally followed the competition until the last moments through communication with my friends in the range.
Yesterday was the 50m Unlimited competition, for which our team was very prepared, I expected much higher results from our competitors, especially the US team.
The Italian team, although they were not present with all their members, have always been a surprise at the WRABF competitions. A month ago, when I talked to Giovanni about whether you are shooting with the Thomas rifle this year, he was not satisfied with the results obtained with the slug! As a result, he was thinking of a replacement rifle! But the Panthera they used yesterday was not a factory rifle and was used in the competition field with optimizations on it, the details of which I do not know in completely.
Mike did not perform well in the third card, although I expected more from him and the American team in the first and second cards. There must have been reasons that Mike will explain.
I hope to have the opportunity to compete with my friends again in the 2027 World Championship. Here are some of my teammates' training that they did on the 50m practice day during the world cup 2025 in windy conditions.
