Sniper 3
Class Overview
This class is designed around the need to work a precision rifle at distances from 25-200 yards at speed. Students will have the valuable opportunity to use a computer to establish their “microdope” specific to their rifle setup. This is unlike any of our other sniper classes. This is not an entry level class. Come ready to go to work with equipment ready to go.
Subjects
- Rifle zeroing
- Muzzle velocity testing
- Computer generated dope
- “Micro dope” drills (small targets, close distance)
- Stress drills
- Hostage scenarios
- Unconventional shooting positions at speed
