The NRA UK Imperial Meeting is the world’s oldest and most prestigious shooting competition, held since 1860 at the legendary Bisley ranges in the United Kingdom. Each year, hundreds of competitors from more than 40 countries gather for this event, which is regarded as the highlight of the international precision shooting calendar.
For ten years now, all participants at the Imperial Meeting have competed exclusively with ammunition produced by Giraitės Ginkluotės Gamykla (GGG). This partnership has become an integral part of the Imperial Meeting tradition, ensuring consistency, equal conditions for all shooters, and the highest technical standards. Over the past decade, GGG ammunition has earned strong recognition from both organizers and top-tier marksmen who return to Bisley each year, trusting in Lithuanian quality.
Reliability that Defines the Competition
NRA UK Managing Director Simon Lee notes that the long-term cooperation with GGG not only ensures technical excellence but also strengthens trust among shooters and organizers.
“Competitors at the Imperial Meeting have the right to expect consistency and reliability. GGG ammunition has met those standards for a decade, since the beginning of our cooperation. We are proud to continue this partnership – it is one of the key pillars of our event’s quality,” says Simon Lee.
For many years, GGG ammunition has been used across all official competitions at Bisley. Every competitor, regardless of experience level, receives identical and carefully tested batches of ammunition – a practice that guarantees fairness and confidence in every shot.
Shooters Appreciate the Quality and Consistency
This year’s Imperial Meeting was won by Brandon Green, an American and long-time instructor with the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit, who was competing at Bisley for the first time. Although he had never used GGG ammunition before, he praised its quality and performance.
“At first I was a bit sceptical, as I had never tried this ammunition before, but I was very quickly impressed by its quality. GGG rounds performed as accurately and consistently as my own handloads. They tracked perfectly at both short and long ranges. I would not hesitate to train or compete with them and would love to see them available in the U.S.,” shared B. Green.
World-Class Quality Standards
Over a decade of partnership with the NRA UK, GGG ammunition has proven its reliability under varying weather conditions and during intense competition. The Imperial Meeting remains one of the world’s oldest and most respected shooting events, attracting marksmen from more than 40 countries.
The cooperation between GGG and the NRA UK represents more than a supply agreement – it reflects a long-term commitment to quality and mutual trust. This partnership has become a strong example of how consistent quality control and responsible manufacturing can build international recognition and demonstrate that Lithuanian-made ammunition can successfully compete at the highest global level.
