Each year the National Rifle & Pistol Matches are held at Camp Perry, OH. The highpower phase of these matches traditionally takes place during the first two weeks of August. The first week is run by the Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) with the second week taken care of by the National Rifle Association (NRA).
