A two-day precision rifle course built around the fundamentals, ballistics, and wind reads it takes to put first-round hits at 1000+ yards. A lot of long-range courses end up being a tour of the instructor's gear closet. This one doesn't. Two days, structured around the same fundamentals Jim Erwin was trained to in the Army Sniper Course, and held his own teams to. If you can already make a 100-yard zero stick, you'll leave with confirmed hits at 1000+ yards under whatever conditions the day gives us. Schedule & Location: •Dates: August 1–2 •Time: 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM (Both Days) •Location: 2559 Precision Drive, Minden, NV Curriculum Overview: •Fundamentals & Rifle Setup: Prone position, bipod setup, and getting the platform ready to track honestly at distance. •Ballistics & Optics: Internal, external, and terminal ballistics.
