The 12^th IMSSU World Championship will be hosted by SAMSSA, in collaboration with the Bloemfontein Metallic Silhouette Shooting Club, during the period 2-16 July 2016 on the Bloemfontein Shooting Center just outside Bloemfontein, South Africa.

The Bloemfontein Shooting Center is situated in the Manguang Metro Municipality.  Mangaung is the Sesotho word for “place of the Cheetahs”. Bloemfontein is the capital of the province Free State of  South Africa and is the judicial capital of the nation. Bloemfontein is popularly known as the city of roses, owing to the abundance of these flowers and the annual rose festival held there. Bloemfontein is situated on dry grassland and is home to 369 568 residents.

Bloemfontein is located in central South Africa on the southern edge of the Highveld at an elevation of 1,400 metres (4,600 ft), bordering on the semi-arid region of the Karoo. The area is generally flat with occasional hills (koppies in Afrikaans) and the general vegetation is Highveld grassland. Bloemfontein experiences a semi-arid climate, with hot summer days (Jan: max:32 °C (90 °F) min:19 °C (66 °F); frequent afternoon thunderstorms) and cooler, dry winters, often with frosts (July: max:14 °C (57 °F) min:−3 °C (27 °F)). Snow is uncommon but as recently as August 2006 it snowed in the city, with snowfalls occurring again at the airport on 26 July 2007.

The event will be hosted on the Bloemfontein Metallic Silhouette Shooting Range, 18km south for Bloemfontein, which is part of the larger Bloemfontein Shooting Center.
