I've been looking for a long range class that wouldn't break the bank. What's in the area for sleeping arrangements?

Should be able to attend with a +1.

Will be great to get some proper coaching on wind reading.

well shit... the one weekend that absolutely doesn't work for me.

I hope y'all have enough interest to offer this course again.

It was a great day. I learned a lot and had fun. Life got in the way resulting in a 7 year hiatis from shooting sports for me just when I was begiinning to get into long range shooting. Most of my experience was up to 250 yards. I never had any training (other than my NRA pistol and home safety instructor training.) This was a great way to get back into it. It's not often (more like never) that one gets to shoot out to 1100 yards. I am on the hunt for public ranges that I can join that are reasonably close. The Rifle Ranch was only a 90 minute drive but it is private.

Scott (and Brad) were great instructors. They helped when help was needed. I learned a lot about reading wind and holdovers. LOL--I also learned not to mess with windage adjustments at the end of the day after you've have great success with holdovers based on your spotter's calls all day long!

I tested a couple of the ballistics apps I have throughout the day. I kept going back to the first one I used (iStrelok). I hope the embargo ends someday.

It was a good group of "students". I think most were shooting 6.5 CR. This cartridge proved to be was more than adequate on my plain jane Savage 10. There was some pretty impressive hardware being used. My first upgrade will be a better scope. I was good up to 500 yards but targets were fuzzy beyond that. I also now understand why more zoom is not always better.

I've got the bug again. I'll be looking for more long range training and shooting opportunities.
