2- Day Precision Rifle 1
2- Day Precision Rifle 1
Details: The Precision Rifle Course (PRC) is your introduction to rifle marksmanship at intermediate and long ranges out to 900 yards. This course is open to anyone who has the desire to shoot well at long distances and requires no prior experience with precision shooting, or firearms in general. This is a beginner class, that will also serve very experienced shooters well by introducing new techniques and honing your skills at extended range. This class will have you ready for that critical moment out west, on the African savanna, or that last light trophy on your back 40.
While this course focuses on dedicated long range engagements in a hunting context, it is equally applicable to martial scenarios. This class integrates our Carbine Marksman course and presents an opportunity for precision AR shooters to get two full days of instruction on a range that offers distances beyond the effective ranges of intermediate calibers such as the 5.56/.223 round.
