Defiance Anti Social

We’re excited to welcome you to The Defiance anTi Social, presented by Defiance Machine. The match will be held in the Little Belt Mountains, 30 minutes east of Great Falls. This is a match you’ll want to attend! The prize table was stacked and the course of fire was epic! Thanks to all of the generous sponsors, this year is shaping up to be the same!

This match will be open to 100 individual competitors and 17 teams, testing their mental fortitude and resolve in realistic hunting-type scenarios. Course of fire will include 18 stages. The maximum round count is 144. Bring extra rounds for zero, power factor, etc. Max range of targets will be 1,000 yards. The round trip walk for the entire course of fire is approximately 2 miles. The range is at 5,000 feet elevation so please by prepared with cold weather gear in case of inclement weather. Lunch will be provided on Saturday and dinner will be provided at the awards ceremony on Sunday. May in Montana can often mean highly unpredictable weather that includes snow and high wind. This high-altitude location, in the picturesque Little Belt Mountains, provides a beautiful backdrop for a perfect weekend of shooting and socialization. We look forward to hosting you at this great venue in everyone’s favorite state, Montana.
