Paramount Tactical Solutions is a veteran-owned, elite training provider delivering precision rifle and tactical instruction to civilians, law enforcement, and military personnel. Led by former Special Forces snipers and federal firearms instructors, Paramount combines real-world combat experience with methodical, performance-driven training, offered at fixed and mobile facilities nationwide.

Flagship offerings include the XP Long Range Academy, a progressive three-tier rifle program co-developed with Ray Helms of X-Ring.

These courses are tailored to meet shooters at any stage:

  • Level I: Ballistics, rifle setup, and marksmanship foundations.
  • Level II: Wind calls, data refinement, and environmental adaptability.
  • Level III: Advanced target engagement, field tactics, and extreme-distance shooting.

Additional programs include:

  • Mid-Long Range Carbine I & II
  • Night Vision & Thermal Training
  • Private Coaching & Diagnostics

All courses feature a 1:4 instructor-to-student ratio (with a maximum of 12 students per class), providing daily feedback, optional equipment rental, and open access for civilians—no prior experience is required.

Training is spearheaded by Gary Melton, a former U.S. Army Special Forces Sniper Team Leader with multiple combat deployments, alongside instructor Jonathan Ames and other instructors within the cadre, who possess deep military or federal agency backgrounds.

With no fluff, curated rifle systems, and an active presence on YouTube and podcasts, Paramount is a respected force in the long-range shooting community.

Train with precision. Learn from combat-proven instructors. Push your limits with Paramount Tactical.
