The bill is a joint resolution from the Montana Legislature urging the Board of Regents and the units of the Montana University System to support and facilitate collegiate shooting sports. It highlights Montana's rich tradition of firearms use and the absence of shooting sports as recognized competitive activities within the university system. The resolution points out that many talented shooters from Montana are compelled to seek scholarships at out-of-state institutions due to the lack of local programs, despite the state's strong safety record in shooting sports and the academic benefits associated with participation in such competitions.

The resolution encourages the Montana University System to adopt shooting sports as collegiate activities, utilize university resources, and collaborate with external entities to promote these sports. Additionally, it calls for the development of endowments and scholarships for students involved in shooting sports, emphasizing the inclusivity and competitive nature of these activities. The Secretary of State is tasked with sending copies of the resolution to relevant stakeholders within the university system.
