Intro To Long Range Bolt Rifle

« Back to All Courses

Description:

This course facilitates the establishment of the fundamentals most necessary to long-range shooting. As an intro, we overview the major “pillars” that provide you the most success in your long-range goals. This one-day course is for the competitor, the hunter, the hobbyist, or the curious looking to up their game or quench a curiosity about performance at distance. This is a great prep course for those looking to get into PRS! More info on Alaska PRS can be found HERE!

Topics covered include safety absolutes, platform imperatives, firing process, basic ballistics, atmospheric conditions, calculating and proving DOPE, understanding repeatable precision and accuracy, wind call and corrections, and more. Shooters will work in spotter / shooter teams and will cover an incredible amount of ground in a short amount of time.

Note that this is not a shooting fundamentals course – students must possess an existing competency in at least 2-300 yard precision and accuracy from the prone or benchrest position.

Preferred is for the student of this course to have completed either our Intermediate Bolt Rifle 201, or MidRange Practical, but previous with us is not required. Call with questions or to discuss if this course is a good fit for you!

A few clips from the recent Long Range 101 course A few clips from the recent Long Range 101 course - an intensive process towards consistent impacts at distance. 
Day one ironed out body mechanics and foundations on the mid range, and day two was spent on the long range focusing on consistent impacts at 600-1000 yards. Peep that hammered 1000yd 18x24" plate in pic 2! 
A deep dive into the pillars that support repeatability even with the endless list of variables we navigate with precision long range shooting. Great crew of shooters, intermittent rain and stunning sunshine, overall a great weekend on the range! 

Congrats to Slowpoke for earning the coveted Accurate Advantage Skittles Trophy!
