THE PRESIDENT’S RIFLE TROPHY
NATIONAL TROPHY RIFLE MATCH
The President’s Rifle Trophy, purchased by the NBPRP in 1977, consists of a disk of black New England slate mounted on a hardwood base. The Presidential Seal is carved on the disk and gilded.
The President’s Match became a National Trophy event in 1977. In prior years the NRA sponsored the match. During the period 1968-1976, the match was not a fired event; awards were based on aggregate scores of other fired matches.
Awarded to: Winner of the President’s Rifle Match
