Description
Rural Riflecraft™ is a defensive rifle course for responsible firearm owners who live, travel, or work in open and mixed terrain, where distance, visibility, and terrain shape decisions long before a threat becomes immediate. Designed for those focused on protecting family, home, and community, the course emphasizes deliberate movement, intelligent use of terrain, and disciplined rifle employment when hard cover is limited and assistance may be delayed. Students develop stable field shooting positions, responsible distance management, and controlled movement across open ground, with a strong emphasis on legal and ethical accountability at extended distances.
