Greg Roman
Greg has worked in the gun industry for over 20 years and has been competing in the shooting sports just as long. Greg has shot USPSA, ICORE Revolver, Steel Challenge, Rimfire Challenge and even John C. Garand matches. However, since 2018 Greg has been obsessed with precision rimfire. This obsession led him to seek employment with Vudoo Gun Works where among other duties, he also manages and competes on our Shooting Team. Greg has shot matches all over the country achieving high scores which has helped him gain the knowledge to help our customers. In his spare time, Greg also coaches newcomers to the precision rimfire world.
Tony Gimmelle
@tonygimmellieTony is the first shooter brought to Team Vudoo in 2017. Tony’s spent 10 years in the U.S. Marine, seven years as a Scout Sniper, and 3 years as a member of the Fleet Anti-Terrorism Security Team (FAST) and a Close Quarters Battle (CQB) Instructor cadre. Upon leaving the Marine Corps, Tony joined the U.S. Secret Service, where he spent 19 year, serving in numerous roles but primarily as a Firearms Instructor. He currently is the Firearms Site lead on the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center for another federal agency. Tony started shooting competitively in 1995, reaching the classification of Grand Master in USPSA and becoming a top-level competitor in other disciplines such as Precision Rifle Series, Precision Long Range Rimfire, 3Gun and various single gun matches with pistol, rifles and PCC. Since 2017, it hasn’t been unusual to see Tony’s name at the top of the match results in Precision Long Range Rimfire and NRL22 matches. You can also find Tony training and mentoring new shooters to the sport, and he is the President of the Modern American Rimfire Series (MARS)
Jason Nedved
Jason Nedved started shooing 22lr competitively in 2019 through the NRL22 with a Tikka T1x and fell in love with the sport and community that comes with it. Jason quickly saw the value in upgrading to a Vudoo Gun Works rifle and immediately started placing well at the local matches. After a quick bump up in rankings, Jason got an invite 2018-2019 NRL22 Championship in Mt. Pleasant, TN, and ended up placing 8th in Open Class and has been to every NRL22 National Championships ever since. He is very knowledgeable and always willing to help others around him progress and excel in the shooting sports.
Johnathon Solinsky
Johnathon first started his professional shooting career when he joined the U.S. Marine Corps Infantry in Oct 2011, graduating from Scout Sniper School in August 2014. His introduction to competitive shooting was in the 2016 Marine Corps Division Combat matches, where he was selected as a permanent member of the Marine Corps Shooting Team, being assigned to the Marine Corps Rifle Team in August 2016. Since then, it’s been a whirlwind of competitions in multiple shooting disciplines. Johnathon earned his Marine Corps Distinguished Shield in March 2019 after winning medals at five High Power and Marine Corps competitions.
Michael Chang
@michaelchang1978Michael lives in Las Vegas and works in the custom promotional business. While not working, Michael spends a lot of time competing in Rimfire and Centerfire precision rifle competitions, which is how he happened to appear on the Vudoo radar. Michael’s love of competition has him making his way through the circuit on the West Coast and venturing regularly to the Mid-West to apply his shooting skill; especially at the National level. Of the three Vudoo V-22’s he uses, his go-to match rifle wears an 18” barrel in a Manners T5, the very rifle he used to set the current ELR World Record at 440 yards.
Rob Ormond
In the beginning, Rob tried his hand at a little bit of everything, like Bowling Pin Shoots and IDPA, but all that changed after attending his first centerfire rifle match in 2003 and he’s been hard at it ever since. He also competed in other disciplines like USPSA, 3Gun and Steel Challenge, but then he found 22lr competition and became one of our OG Team Vudoo Shooters in 2017. Rob is that steady force, the quiet professional, but I think that’s part of his mental programming because he certainly has been killing it for Team Vudoo.
Bob Mead
Bob has spent a lot of time shooting in competitive events within various disciplines; shooting Master class in USPSA, spent time in the IDPA, 3Gun and Silhouette circuits, participating in the Chevy Team Challenge, and fought his way to Massachusetts State Champion in Sporting Clays. Bob’s acute attention to detail also made him the perfect fit on Vudoo’s small and effective R&D team where he makes valuable contributions by way of testing prototypes and providing protocol-based-feedback that’s been invaluable to what Vudoo does best; create and envision the exceptional. And, on top of all that, he shoots pretty well too, making common appearances at the top of the leaderboards.
Paul Dallin
Paul lives and works in Lake Shore, Utah where he runs his own construction and roofing business. 2024 will be Paul's 8th year competing at national-level events across the country. Paul also loves to shoot pistols, air rifles, and archery. Paul is also an avid outdoors-man and hunter spending a lot of time in the mountains of Utah with his friends and family.
