This is NOT a beginner class.
You must be very familiar with your rifle and know how to operate it safely around other people. You must be able to put 5 rounds in a 10" circle at 7 yards to proceed with the class. If you cannot perform that, and/or you do not have good firearm handling habits, you will not be allowed to participate, and will not receive a refund. You can stay and watch if you want, but you will not be allowed to shoot. This policy is to keep everyone in the class safe, and ensure the training runs smoothly. We focus on self defense with a rifle inside 50 yards. This class is outdoors, but there is a covered area. Cost is $300 per person.
Topics include:
- Marksmanship
- Using a sling
