Intro to Long Range Precision – February 6-7th – White Lake, NC
$600.00
February 6-7th
White Lake, NC
Saturday: 8am-5pm
Sunday: 8am-3pm
Primary Instructor: Tony Cowden
Our intro course is for anyone who wants to get started learning the art and science of long-range shooting. All shooters: military, LE, hunters, and folks who just want to smash steel targets are welcome to attend this course. This course covers the fundamentals of long range precision shooting, gun and gear set up, ballistics, environment effects, and how to use the ballistic solver to its fullest.
We have student gun and gear available for this course. This option allows for the complete beginner to gain the knowledge needed to make informed decisions when they purchase their gun and equipment. Contact us to reserve your gun and gear. Gun is $100. Gear (Kestrel, bag, etc.) is no cost.
*Student must supply the ammo (6.5 creedmoor or .308).
Gun & Gear Requirements for the course:
– Watch our Youtube series: Intro to Long Range and Precision Rifle Set Up.
– Rifle capable of sub 0.3 Mrad or sub-MOA (less than 1″ group at 100m) accuracy.
Please arrive with your rifle with all screws torqued and thread locked, and it zeroed at 100 meters if possible. We will cover gaining a proper zero, verify zero, and make adjustments, but having all students arrive with a close zero saves precious time.
– First focal plane optic of at least 12x magnification with a long range Mrad* or MOA “Christmas tree” style reticle (example: Leupold PR2). Mrad is the industry standard. If purchasing your first optic, choose Mrad over MOA! Despite what many still say, MOA is not easier than MRad and MRad provides us many tools MOA does not.
– Anti cant level. Flatline Ops Halo-X is our favorite, but all of the FLO levels are great.
– Bipod with swivel capability: MDT sets the industry standard with their Ckye Pod bipods, but they are pricey. The Harris S series a cost effective solution. 9-13 inch tall, or similar height are best. Please do not purchase or come to the course with a Magpul bipod or other cheap plastic pod; they are junk.
– 200 rounds of the same (same brand, same bullet, same load) MATCH ammunition.
No mix and match ammo! Having consistent performing ammunition is how we predict trajectories (Ex: A 200gr round fired at 2850fps may have an elevation hold of 4.5 mRads at 600m. A 180gr round fired at 2900fps may have an elevation hold of 5.1mRads. The difference of 0.6mRads at 600m is 15″ and a miss of the vitals of most big game animals.) Our recommended factory ammo is Defender Ammunition, Hornady ELD-X, Hornady ELD-M, and Federal Premium Match.
– Kestrel 5700 (or 5700 Elite) with Applied Ballistics
– Rear bag (highly recommend is the Armageddon Gear Game Changer X).
– Shooting mat. (Midway USA and Cabelas/Bass Pro have really good mats for $50 and under).
– Tool kit with bits and heads for all the screws on your rifle, chassis/stock, and optic.
– Notebook / Pen
– Food and drinks for the day
– Appropriate clothing for the weather forecast.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS about your gear or what gear to purchase, please contact us. LR is an inherently expensive endeavor, so getting the right gear the first time is worthwhile.
Cancellation Policy: If for any reason this class must be rescheduled or a student cannot attend, a course credit will be issued. The course credit is good for the amount paid for the class and can be applied to any Capable Inc course at any location. If the credit is less than the class the shooter would like to attend, they will only need to pay the difference. If the course is less than the rescheduled course, the shooter will retain the balance and may apply it to another course of their choosing. It is the shooters responsibility to contact Capable Inc via email and make any/all arrangements to redeem their credit and attend a subsequent class. Purchasing a course implies understanding and agreement to these terms.
