The training clinic is designed to give participants the knowledge and fundamentals to precisely shoot targets at distance. This is a “ground-up” class where each shooter will thoroughly go through their gear to ensure proper setup, and learn specifically with their own equipment. The clinic run 8:00a-6:00p with a break for lunch. Cost is $399, and upon passing the course, participants will be qualified for return visits to the long range. Check calendar for class schedule. Email david@fossilpointe.net for more information.
There are no prerequisites of skill. This course is designed for both the novice and experienced shooter. A good shooter is always learning.
Here is a list of items needed to participate in the training clinic:
- 308, 6.5mm, 6mm or similar caliber precision rifle capable of one minute of angle accuracy. Hunting rifles and/or magnum calibers are not recommended. Hunting/sporter profile barrels tend to have a point of impact shift as they heat up and usually have to be shot at a slower pace which will significantly reduce the training value. Magnum caliber recoil will make training difficult due to the quantity of rounds of course and shooter fatigue.
