Mountain Rifleman

The _Mountain Rifleman_ course is a physically demanding, high-elevation precision shooting experience tailored for long-range hunters looking to master real-world mountain conditions. Held at 4,000–6,500 feet in the rugged Nevada backcountry, this 2-day course immerses you in the environmental challenges faced during alpine hunts—steep angles, shifting thermals, complex wind, and natural obstacles.

‍

You'll learn to:

• Execute high-angle shots up and down mountainous slopes
• Read terrain for wind behavior and firing solutions
• Understand and leverage thermal activity in canyons and valleys
• Build stable positions using natural terrain and tripods
• Apply external ballistic adjustments at altitude

‍

Field movement is integral—expect to hike, climb, and shoot from varied elevations throughout both days. Each shooter must be self-sufficient, carrying all necessary food, water, and gear during the course.

‍

Required Gear:

• Precision rifle (1 MOA or better)
• Adjustable power scope
• 100–130 rounds of match-grade ammo
• Bipod and shooting bag
• Tripod (strongly recommended)
• Complete hunting kit or personal field setup

‍

This course is not for beginners. A solid understanding of fundamentals and ballistic data is expected. If you need a tune-up, a one-day Long Range Skills Clinic is offered the day before—available as a discounted 3-day bundle.

‍

It is ideal for hunters preparing for high-altitude, long-range mountain engagements.

Limited slots available — early registration is advised.
