Shooting Team 8

Shooting Team 8 (ST8) was originally formed as a team of shooters Long Range and Dynamic Precision Shooting ( LR and DPS ). And I created this site to show our work, publish some reviews, ideas and the like. Over time the material began to increase and so the site and blog grew into its current form…

Over time the ST8 is far from focused only on Long Range and Dynamic Precision Shooting , but also on defensive shooting from handguns and carbines or semi-auto rifles. The number of team members has grown to several dozen members. We do regular team trainings with handguns, rifles and LR and DPS and of course a team weekend for fun and relaxation.

We also train regularly with carbines and semi-auto rifles which is also about Dynamic Shooting . And of course we compete in these disciplines as well. This is either in LOS competitions or in various tactical competitions . Here our shooters are quite successful too.

Shooting from precision rifles is still our main passion. We also shoot competitions in precision shooting at medium distances (up to 300 meters. This is given by the type of shooting ranges in the Czech Republic), Long Range (300 - 1,400 meters. Mostly abroad) and we also like and are successful in various Dynamic Precision Shooting (usually from 20 meters up to a distance of over 1,000). These are civilian competitions such is the PRS which is becoming more and more organized in Europe and also tactical competitions which have a tradition in Europe. Sometimes they also include camouflage and non-shooting disciplines from the range of skills from the armed forces (estimating distances, working with a map, moving in the field, shooting at night, working on a rope, medical training, etc.). The top discipline is Extreme Long Range (over 1,400 meters) which we have also been worki
