The 2026 IPSC QLD State Titles was an absolute powerhouse of an event, bringing together some of Queensland’s finest competitors for 12 intense, skill-testing stages.

At 2Alpha Shooting Supplies, we are beyond proud to support our team on the range. Ryan Shrimpton continues to demonstrate incredible dedication, grit, and top-tier performance, paying off in a big way at this year’s State Titles with awesome results:

1st Place – Best Overall Junior Competitor
1st Place – Production Optics B Grade
3rd Place – Production Optics Overall
24th – Match Overall (PDO Master Grade match performance at 97%)

Running his trusty Canik Rival S paired with high-performance gear, Ryan’s setup performed flawlessly across every stage. In fact, Ryan was shooting at such an unbelievable level that he set a blistering pace for the whole field, including his dad, Craig Shrimpton!

Craig secured 2nd Place in Production A Grade after battling back from a few early mistakes on Saturday. But as any proud father would admit, Craig said he got seriously smashed by Ryan on every stage, unbelievable shooting from this young Champ!

A Heartfelt Thank You to the Match Volunteers

We want to extend a huge THANK YOU to all the selfless volunteers, Range Officers, and match staff who poured their time and energy into making the 2026 QLD State Titles a massive success.

We also want to shout out every competitor who showed up to test their skills, the camaraderie and spirit on the range were unmatched!
