Two-day intermediate western hunting rifle course from Bergara Academy for shooters with approved entry-level training seeking deeper field application.
This 2-day field-format course is built for shooters who have already completed an approved entry-level class and want more depth in western hunting rifle application.

The curriculum also pushes further into wind reading, field shooting techniques, and the effects of velocity variation on shot placement, using realistic hunting-style conditions and terrain rather than a bench-focused format.
