Long Range Level 1 is an introduction to long-range shooting. This course is open to all experience levels and backgrounds, but students are expected to show up with an understanding of firearms safety and the ability to shoot a scoped rifle. Students will learn about equipment specific to precision shooting, marksmanship fundamentals, ballistics, and environmental factors that affect bullet trajectory.

With the assistance of instructors, students will ensure their rifle is correctly adjusted and that their scope is level. All students must zero or confirm zero with a minimum of 10 rounds and a chronograph. This is not only a safety measure, but important for getting the average muzzle velocity for ballistics computation. Paired in spotter/shooter teams, students will learn how to read wind, spot bullet trace, observe impacts, and efficiently communicate corrections to put rounds on targets out to 1400 meters.

This course builds a solid foundation for understanding long range marksmanship.

Prerequisites: Long Range Level 1 or equivalent experience

Long Range Level 2 builds off the information taught in Level 1. While prior Level 1 is not a requirement, students attending Level 2 are expected to have a basic understanding of long-range precision shooting.

Long Range Level 2 dives into advanced material on external ballistics and environmental factors. Students will learn how to use the Mil Relation Formula for range estimation, how to use the Kestrel 5700 Elite Ballistics, and the Garmin Xero chronograph.

Students will become familiarized with shooting from alternate, unsupported positions including a tripod and rapidly engage targets out to 1400 meters.
