If anyone is interested in this class and needs a ride from the East TN, or SW Virginia area let me know. This is going to be even better than the first class back in Feb. Great facility and trainers are top notch.

Can't wait.
 
I concur! Think I've got a bad case of tennis elbow from manipulating the bolt handle so many times
-Great instruction
-Lots of drills to take back and practice
-Great courses of fire and scenario's by Cuckler and Spicer
-Timed drills that really pushed you
-Great facility and range.. steel targets at 200, 300, 400, 500, 555, 600, 700, 725 yds
-head to head shooting
-Positional shooting/barricade shooting positions that most don't even have access to

The only question for me is when are they doing it again....

-- Well thought out class consisting of :
-Gear management and selection: what works and doesn't. Great atmosphere to see what others are using and test out theirs.
