This course covers techniques for precision shooting at various distances, focusing on creating stability from various shooting positions, target acquisition, recoil management, and the use of magnified optics for improved shooting performance. Participants learn how to properly build ballistic profiles, zero their rifles, and accurately engage targets at known and unknown distances while under time pressure or in dynamic environments. Whether for law enforcement, military, or civilian enthusiasts, the course aims to build a solid foundation for effective use of a scoped carbine in diverse shooting scenarios. This course will cover the following: Precision Rifle Foundational Principles - Internal and External Ballistics - MILS vs MOA vs BDC - Optic Composition - Ballistic Solver/Data Configuration - Atmospheric Effects - Zeroing preferences - Reticle Analysis - Common Terminology Visual Processing - Target Acquisition - Shot Corrections - Recoil Induced Reticle Movement - Target Movement Positional Shooting - Creating and maintaining stability - Body Position/Structure - Recoil Control - Prop Negotiation - Rifle and Support Equipment Position and Manipulation Wind reading - Identifying wind speed and Direction (Experience based and deduction methods) - Cosine system - Topographical influence - Wind Bracketing/Target Size-Speed Limits Strategy - Holdover vs Dialing - Identifying standard baselines (timed) - Creating stage plans around shooter capabilities - Minimizing unforced errors (Pre-stage/post-stage routine) Rapid Engagement Techniques - Speed Drop - Max Point Blank - Different ways to manipulate data based on scenario Gear Required - Semi-Automatic Rifle that is able to shoot with a tolerance of less than 2 MOA
