This 2-day course is tailored for shooters looking to expand beyond basic carbine work into the realm of precision with magnified optics. Focused on LPVOs and variable-power scopes, this class bridges the gap between close-quarters agility and mid-range precision—ideal for tactical professionals, competitors, or serious civilian marksmen with prior carbine experience.
What you’ll learn:
You’ll develop the ability to rapidly transition between distances, shoot from non-standard positions, and effectively apply ballistic data in the field. Core skills include:
- Building repeatable improvised and supported shooting positions
- Confirming zero and adjusting for atmospheric effects
- Wind calls and ballistic app integration (Kestrel supported)
- Precision tripod shooting and magnification management
- Man-on-man drills to sharpen speed and decision-making
- Engaging targets inside and beyond your zero using holdovers
- Smooth transitions between LPVOs and backup RDS/irons
- Multi-target drills under time pressure
How it’s delivered:
Expect a high-paced training environment that emphasizes practical application over theory. The course is physically demanding, involving movement, quick target transitions, and non-traditional shooting stances. It’s designed for shooters who already have command of their weapon platform and want to advance with optics.
Where and what you’ll shoot:
You’ll run your carbine across varied ranges using steel and paper targets, including timed and positional shooting scenarios out to mid-distance (typically 300–600 yards, depending on the range).
