The ability to engage a target at long distance results from a blend of shooter skill, ammunition capability, and equipment setup. Precision Rifle I teaches you the crucial technical details of sorting out your equipment, ammunition, and setup to allow you to begin to build the skills that will ultimately take you to 1,000 yards and beyond.

Client feedback has driven the creation of this class to help sort out equipment/ammunition concerns so that in the level II class we can focus on more demanding skills like wind calls and range estimation.

Course Goal: give the rifle shooter the ability to set up their equipment to reliably hit a point target out to 600 yards.
