Description
Time will be spent in the classroom and on the range in a stress-free, unintimidating atmosphere where we encourage all students to ask all questions that they may have.
We will start in the classroom going over firearm safety, components of the rifle and discuss basic rifle marksmanship principles. From there we will move to the range to learn how to apply those fundamentals, zero your rifle, learn shooting positions and more. After our range time, students will return to the classroom to finish up the class by breaking their rifle down to learning how to properly care and clean their rifle.
