Jake Vibbert - XLR Pro Shooter

Jake Vibbert is back with Team XLR for 2020 precision rifle season. Although it has been an unusual year for the sport, Jake has continued to make an impact as a competitor, match director, instructor, and sponsor. 

In just five years, Jake has earned an impressive shooting resume with consistent top finishes in both the Precision Rifle Series (PRS) and the National Rifle League (NRL). In fact, Jake has compiled more wins than any other shooter in the United States at national level PRS and NRL matches during that span.  

Jake owns JC Steel Targets which produces quality AR500 steel targets along with target hanging systems. JC Steel Targets is a proud sponsor of precision rifle matches in both the NRL and PRS and also supports local ministries in Jake's community of Cheney, WA.

As a precision rifle instructor, Jake travels the country shooting and teaching precision rifle classes. He has also put together a Precision Rifle Training series, the first of its kind, geared towards both new and advanced shooters who are interested in improving their tactical/practical precision rifle performance.

This past year, Jake and fellow shooter Jon Pynch launched the VP Precision Podcast in which they discuss recent matches, trends, and offer their insight and perspective on the precision rifle scene. 

A devoted husband and father, Jake, has formal degrees in sports medicine and youth ministry. An avid outdoors-man, he enjoys hunting and fishing with his family and mentoring youth through his ministry service.

Make an introduction to Jake and he will respond instantly with a big grin and firm handshake. You would be hard-pressed to find a nicer person.

Top Finishes of 2020 (Thus Far)

Jake took the top spot at the RETRO-TPRC the first professional match of the Precision Rifle Series, and a strong second-place finish at the Parma Precision Rifle Rumble.

Chris Way - 2020 Team XLR Pro Shooter

Chris Way is back with Team XLR for the 2020 season. He is off to a quick start with a win at the National Rifles League's (NRL) Rifles Only Brawl the first national match of the NRL's season.

Since taking up competitive precision rifle shooting, only a short time ago, Chris has had success in both the NRL and Competition Dynamics (CD) series. Last year Chris had 3 top 5 finishes within the CD series including a 1st place finish at the Sniper Adventure Challange.

Chris's goals this year are to qualify for the NRL Finale within three matches, to be highly competitive within the Competition Dynamics series and to beat Dorgan Trostel in a match. 

Chris is based out of Erie, CO where in addition to his shooting activities he is an avid rock climber and runs a company called PACE Lid which makes storage compartments for largemouth water bottles. 

Tidbits about Chris:

• Motto: "Do it, or don't"
• Inspiration: "My wife inspires me, my kids motivate me."
• Routine: "Routines kill, mix up training and responsibilities often."
• Precision Rifle Teaches: "Life is hit and miss"
• Fun Facts: "Challenges and shenanigans trump all. Try me. I manage to max my health insurance deductible every year…"

All New ENVY JV Heavy Fill | SHOT Show 2019

Today we are releasing the most anticipated new product for 2019. The all-new version of the JV Heavy Fill ENVY chassis system.

Our focus on the ENVY chassis system has always been to provide competition shooters with exactly what they need to perform at the highest levels. The new JV Heavy Fill option aims to push the bar once again. This chassis weighs in at a stout 64oz. not including buttstock, grip or any accessories.

This chassis features a solid steel spine that extends 2.75" past the end of the forend. Provides the shooter with extra weight & the ability to mount accessories further forward. Combine this chassis with our new weight focused accessories and you have yourself a next-level competition platform.

The removable steel spine adds 20oz. to the chassis and comes standard with a 2.5" Dovetail & Picatinny rail to accommodate a variety of bipods, tripods & accessories.

Although you can choose which buttstock you'd like, a majority of our competition shooters choose the Tactical buttstock paired with a Tactical Bag Rider and Mercury Recoil Reduction Kit to round out the back of their chassis.
