GECO IPSC is thriving – Welcome to the team, Katharina Schneider

In her, GECO gains not only an internationally experienced shooter, but an athlete who understands IPSC as a system – and draws her strength precisely from this.
New energy for the GECO IPSC team
IPSC is all about dynamism, precision and mental strength under time pressure. It is precisely in this challenging environment that Katharina Schneider has been competing at the highest level for years. As a member of the Austrian national team, she regularly competes in international Level III to V matches – where she goes head-to-head with the world’s best shooters.
Her approach deliberately differs from that of many others:
For her, performance is no accident, but the result of preparation, consistency and trust in a system that works.
Who is Katharina Schneider?
Born in Lower Austria and now based in Thalheim near Wels, Katharina represents a new generation of IPSC athletes: analytical, structured and consistently focused on long-term development.
Her focus lies on the handgun disciplines as well as PCC – where precision, speed and power must work together perfectly. Through continuous participation in high-level competitions, including the IPSC Handgun World Shoot, she has worked her way up step by step.
A system that delivers
At the heart of Katharina’s approach lies a clear principle:
Consistency builds confidence – and confidence drives performance.
This applies to her training just as much as to her equipment. From structured dry-fire training and targeted competition planning to carefully selected ammunition: every detail is part of a system that must function reliably under pressure.
This is precisely why she relies on GECO ammunition – tested in training and proven in competition. For her, it is clear: reliability, consistent performance and smooth feeding are not extras, but the foundation for success in IPSC.
What you can expect
With Katharina Schneider, the GECO IPSC Team gains not only a sporting reinforcement, but also a strong personality with a clear stance on the sport.
Stay tuned
Katharina Schneider’s full athlete profile, featuring insights into her training, setup, mindset and competition experience, will be published on the GECO website soon.
Until then: GECO IPSC is alive and kicking – and the next top athlete is already in the starting blocks. WHERE EXCITEMENT STARTS.
