The Texas A&M Corps of Cadets Marksmanship Unit (CCMU) is the nation's premier collegiate action shooting team. Located in College Station, Texas, CCMU represents Texas A&M University in some of the most competitive shooting sports in the country, with 20 national championships under their belt.

The team fields competitors across four primary disciplines:

CCMU competes in the Scholastic Action Pistol Program (SASP), which emphasizes fast and accurate handgun shooting with strict weapons safety protocols. Competitions consist of four stages, shot five times each by team members. Divisions include: - Centerfire - 9mm striker-fire handguns - 1911 - .45 ACP platform - Rimfire - .22 caliber handguns

CCMU holds SASP Collegiate National Titles in all three divisions, with wins in Centerfire (2014, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2022, 2024, 2025), 1911 (2019, 2021, 2023, 2024, 2025), and Rimfire (2016).

CCMU competes in sniper-initiated precision rifle matches against SWAT teams from Texas, adjoining states, and federal agencies. The team participates in: - Texas State SWAT Championship (hosted by Tactical Police Officer Association) - TTPOA Pirkle SWAT Sniper Challenge - Professional-level competition - Mammoth Sniper Challenge - 3-day event covering 30 miles of rucking with 14 competition stages

Recent placements include 7th and 24th out of 29 professional SWAT sniper teams at the June 2025 TTPOA challenge.

The team competes in fast-paced, mentally and physically demanding 3-gun matches requiring shooters to switch between rifle, shotgun, and handgun while navigating dynamic stages. Notable competitions include:

• •SIG Relentless Warrior National Championship - CCMU's primary 3-gun focus since 2018. This combat-style match attracts teams from U.S. Military Academies (USAFA, USMA, USNA), Coast Guard Academy, VMI, Virginia Tech, Canadian Royal Military College, and others.

• •West of the Pecos Run & Gun - A 7-mile foot race through rugged South Texas hills where competitors carry all firearms, optics, ammunition, and equipment while engaging targets up to 500 yards.
