Re: Central Cascade Precision (class)
Here's the info (from website).
Duration: 4 Days
Cost: $600
Range Fee: $100
Ammunition Required: 300 Rounds
Scope of Training
This course is designed to give the shooter a basic understanding of Long Range marksmanship. You will learn the core skills that are required to consistently score hits on targets from 100 yards to 1000 yards. Long range accuracy is a result of the shooter consistently applying the fundamentals of marksmanship, interpreting atmospheric conditions, accurately applying adjustments to optics and recording data. Students will spend two days in the classroom learning the basic principals, and then move to the range to put them to the test. Our range is located in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. Weather conditions here can change rapidly and students will gain valuable experience by learning how to cope with varying winds and mirages.
