The Prince of 1500m

The “Prince of 1500m” is recognized as one of France’s most demanding long range shooting competitions.

It is organized every year in Caylus by the MIKE Group, and enables the best long range shooting teams to compete over distances ranging from 700 to 1500 metres. One of its special characteristics is that all competitors must shoot with .338 LM rifles.

The Mini Hecate II Custom, the ultimate rifle for competitive long range shooting.
