Introduction To Long Range (100-300 yards)

Whether you are shooting for sport, hunting or competition, this class is without question the PERFECT beginning. Course will focus on your overall setup, proper shooting techniques, getting a solid zero. Also, you will shoot, a lot. Plan on apprx. 100 rounds. You don't get better if you're not shooting!
