Viking Arms is excited to announce that Adam Farwell, a Leupold-sponsored UK precision rifle shooter, has joined the Viking Field Team of Brand Ambassadors.
A Lifetime of Marksmanship
Adam's journey into the world of shooting began at just 6 years old, with an underpowered air rifle and targets set at 10 yards. This early exposure ignited a passion that has grown and evolved over the years. From progressing to shotgun shooting at 10, acquiring his Firearms Certificate at 18 for fox shooting, to discovering the thrill of long-range target shooting and competitive matches, Adam's life has been a continual journey of growth and achievement in shooting disciplines.
Competitive Spirit and Achievements
Over the past few years, Adam has been a prominent figure in both centrefire and rimfire shooting circuits. Starting with a Begara B14 and quickly moving to a custom-built 6mm Dasher with a Zermatt TL3 action and a Leupold Mark 5HD, Adam has shown exceptional skill and dedication. His persistence and strategic prowess have earned him a spot on the British Open Team for the 2024 Centre Fire World Cup in Colorado, US. Additionally, Adam is a regular competitor on the PRS .22 circuit, where he notably placed 7th in the factory division and 26th overall at the world championships.
Adam’s recent placings include:
- 8th overall at the May '23 PR22 World Cup qualifier
- 9th overall at the June '23 PR22 final
- 11th overall at the June '23 Bushnell Elite Tactical Showdown
- 2nd overall at the July '23 Hunter Match at Pro Shoot
