NRA's USA Shooting just posted an article about the NRA HighPower Rifle National Championships at Camp Atterbury IN.
https://www.ssusa.org/articles/2021/10/19/nra-national-matches-2021-high-power-rifle-championships-at-camp-atterbury

These are mostly mid to long range, 600 to 1000yd. (as opposed to the short to mid range 200-300-600yd Service Rifle championships run by CMP at Camp Perry).

Central Arizona has some of the best mid-range and long range shooting and shooters in the country. We have 500 yds at both clubs (PRGC & Rio Salado) once a month and 600yd & 1000yd and occasionally 800 & 900 yd at Ben Avery almost every week. Tucson also has 600 & 1000 yds.

This shooting has divisions for both prone with a sling and iron sights and F-class which is prone using huge scopes and benchrest style rifle stands or bipods.
