RPC-1 Competition
For Individuals

RPC-1 is a competition for individuals derived from the team competition REPIKO. It is a multi-stage rapid-fire match that combines precision target shooting with dynamic shooting at reactive steel targets (steel plates). The performance is evaluated as the difference between the score on the paper target and the total time required to neutralize all gongs.

History Of The
Competition

The competition was established in 2019, originally as a club-level match under the name REPIJED (REPIKO for individuals). Its main promoter and ambassador at the time was leading shooter and Union member Pavol Jurkáček.

Over time, the competition gained wider popularity and, starting from the 2022 season, it was included in the official SZVvZ competition calendar as an official Union competition concluded with the Slovak Championship.
