Course Description: The Long Range Rifle course consists of classroom and practical range exercises. Classroom instruction will include a comprehensive discussion of long range ballistics and environmental considerations, caliber and cartridge selection, the value of hand-loading ammunition tuned for specific situations, and basic marksmanship principles. The practical range exercises will allow shooters to practice sighting in their own rifles and long range marksmanship skill practice out to 600 yards. This course offers a lot of personalized instruction on the range including use of a chronograph and a computer printout of your cartridge’s statistics for use in calculation. We don’t know of anyone teaching a course of this nature.
