Does anyone know whether the 2022 USA Shooting National Matches will be happening this year? I've never been able to go before due to work commitments, and now that I've finally got a little more free time it looks like they were shut down for 2020 and 2021.

Not wanting to make too much of an excuse, but the National Matches were almost always held at Ft Benning.
Visitor control there was highly regulated at the second part of the Olympic Trials last year --- to the point that it would not have been feasible to hold a "public" event. If their VC measures have not slacked off (a base where I am has not --- gotten even worse), it is silly to think about it.
Confounding the issue is the OTC in Colorado Springs was making it difficult to have any match there needing the OTC range. The NTCSC (club) is now doing their training and matches offsite.
Bottom line (as I've said in the past) USAS needs to get out of Colorado and build their own range/set of ranges that can handle the National Matches.

Thanks for the info. I just assumed it was due to Covid, and that now that everyone's tired of it that things would go back to normal
