Lapua success at the South Swedish Championship
The South Swedish Nationals held on 16 May 2026 by Norrahammars Jakt och Sportskytteklubb became a standout event for Lapua's sponsored shooter Rikard Alm, who delivered one of his strongest performances to date. Demonstrating consistency across all stages, Alm secured first place in combined game shooting with an impressive total score of 367/400.
One of the standout moments of the day came during the rifle position shooting at 100 meters, where Rikard achieved a flawless 100/100 on the roedeer target competing with his Sauer 100 chambered in .223 Rem and loaded with Lapua Scenar 69 grs.
Reflecting on the match, Alm shared his thoughts on the challenges and triumphs of the day:
“I’m very happy with the overall result, even though I fell a bit short on the running moose and sporting clay stages. The weather started out good, but toward the end the rain was pouring down, which made things more challenging. When I had fired the first nine shots on the roedeer target at 100 meters, I saw that all of them were in the 10‑ring. Taking that final shot is always tough, but I managed to stay calm and just barely squeezed out another 10.”
With the European Team announcement coming soon, we look forward to following Rikard and the team into the next match!
