Another Rifles Only course sponsored by The Firing Line. This will be an incredible opportunity to learn the art of long range shooting in a unique format, from an instructor who is widely regarded as being the best in the business! This class will be limited to 10 students with 3 instructors. The first class is filled already. There will be lots of one-on-one time with this ratio. This is another 4-day course, to be held June 13 thru the 16th (this coming month!). Cost is $1195. Round count will be approx. 400, probably more. Suppressors will be made available to those students who may have a suppressor-ready platform but do not have their suppressor yet. I was out shooting on this property last weekend, it is beautiful property in Orchard, CO. Distances up to a mile depending on ability, most shooting will be done between 500 and 1000 yards +!

Training Topics to include;

Fundamentals of marksmanship;
Recoil management;
Positional shooting;
Moving targets;
Trajectory and wind compensation;
Use of the milliradian system for range estimation;
Target detection;
Shot placement;
Internal, external and terminal ballistics;
Data gathering and usage;
Precision shot placement under high stress;
Effects of temperature on bullet placement;
Care and choosing the right precision rifle and optics to suit your purpose.

There will be some really superb shooters and instructors in this class. Another opportunity for Denver-area shooters to learn from the best in a student and shooter-friendly environment. It will be challenging to students at all ability levels. For a more thorough synopsis, equipment list and to sign up- contact Richard Taylor or Dave Bayer or Len at The Firing Line, 303/363-0041.
Ammo will be avail for purchase if needed for students.

Also- this not a totally "out in the heat" deal. Much of the classroom training is indoors and long distance shooting can be done from the large open end of a modern "barn". Not an out of the back of your pick up deal. A large part of this course covers technical aspects of long range shooting, stuff you can take with you, not a bunch of guys trying to prove who's best. Listen, learn and practice.
