Introductory Long Range Shooting Class for 4 People
You are guaranteed to have a lot of fun with the President of the Northwest Chapter and learn a lot during this one day course for four (4) people. The objective of this introductory course is to give the student shooter the knowledge and skill set to successfully hit targets out to the maximum effective range of their favorite big-game hunting rifle. This will be accomplished through classroom instruction and practical application on the range.

The morning classroom module includes the rifle as a system, basic ballistics, ammo selection & preparation, proper cleaning, use of laser ballistic range-finder, wind estimation and effects, and marksmanship concepts. The remainder of the day will include equipment checks and real-world marksmanship practice. We will perform round chronographing during a rifle zero confirmation at 100 yards and then begin shooting targets in varying increments out to at least 700 yards or more, conditions and rifle capabilities pending.

At the end of the course, the student should have a basic understanding of what it takes to reliably make first round hits on a 1’x1’ target out to 700 yards. Most importantly, the shooters will understand their real-world maximum effective shooting range when using their favorite hunting rifle. The ethical hunter knows his capabilities and limitations!

Student shooters to provide their own rifle(s) and ammo. Rifles should be chambered in big game hunting calibers and capable of shooting sub 1 MOA (1” groups or less) at one hundred yards. Preferably, scopes should have turrets with ¼ MOA (.25”) elevation and windage adjustments.

Class will be in Washington. Dates to be mutually acceptable during May through July of 2015.
