Looking for a course - ty_hooper12 - 06-07-2018

I’d like to take a precision rifle class sometime this summer, learn more about long range fundamentals and ballistics. I’ve learned quite a bit reading, but I like hands on so much better. Only way to get better is to do it right? Does anybody in the Horde know where I might find one around the Abilene, TX area?

Yup - just do it. I can't say enough about the PR courses at Blue Steel Ranch http://bluesteelranch.us/ The lead instructor Brian absolutely rocks (he was a Special Forces sniper then Special Forces sniper instructor) and when I was down there in April for Carbine Marksman, John Paul was committed to attend all courses for the year. The only downside is that its like meeting Heisenberg. And once you've met Heisenberg, not a lot of other product will do Wink

I can vouch for that facility, its owner (JP), and the instructor quality.

Blue Steel Ranch is an awesome facility for training, with days of training opportunities with different cliff areas overlooking real terrain and more steel targets than you can shoot in a week.

They have a "classroom" range right near the billeting that you can literally spit and hit it.

This one is close to Greenville Texas near Wolf City Texas. Jason is a Fireman that got into long range shooting to hit coyotes as far out as he can. His range is 800 yards but with him you get one on one training from basics to much more. I know several people he has had out that their first day he had them ringing 2 MOA steel out to his range limit of 800 yards with dope for your rifle and load. If you want to he has a rental 7mm-08 for class use or just take your Grendel as he is very familiar with it. The material covered can be starting very basic or more advanced as it is tailored to the student with firing positions prone/bench plus various field positions as found while hunting

If needed he will teach you how to reload as well.

FBP is where Impact Precision actions are made. >;D

CLD is my local range, and the company that handles their training is Match Grade Precision, taught by some really amazing people. I just took their PRS prep class with Jim See out of Iowa. I can't tell you how much good of an investment this is for your ability, knowledge, and confidence. I am going back for more "expensive" training next spring. The class I took was 375 bucks, and I don't feel cheated. I can't wait to go to another match with new glass, and parley with the squad. Soon, very soon.
