The advanced CENTERFIRE ONLY courses below each require previous attendance of a standard 2 day Appleseed. It is strongly encouraged that the shooter has attained “Expert” status on our 25 Yard AQT. Limited to 10 shooters. NO WALK ONS. Please contact us if you have any questions.
1.) Our UKD-Unknown Distance course offers a very realistic dynamic for the Rifleman. It puts into action the “Primary Tasks of a Rifleman”. A concept simply talked about in our 2 day class. We will actually detect, range and shoot complex and hidden targets in canyons, open fields, shaded woods among the high country buttes. Distances vary from 100-900 yards.
Bring your bolt or semi-auto rifle of 338 or less. Scopes or iron sights will work, but at this course scoped (with a MIL-DOT or MIL or MOA based marks) bolt actions will do best! Have your rifle zeroed at 25 yards! This is a NON-AQT, field expedient course. In addition the usual items listed above, bring a small pack, rangefinder, binoculars (10x50 work best), pen notepad, and a calculator plus the usual Rifleman essentials. We will shoot about 300 rounds of ammo.
We will shoot the 1125 yard White Buffalo at the Silhouette Range too!!
NOTE: NO Magnum cartridges or 223 diameter bullets to be shot at the White Buffalo!
2.) KD At this course we shoot the full distance AQT 100, 200, 300 and 400 yards.
AR's, M1A's, Garands etc work best! Come score Expert and earn that special KD patch!
We will also shoot the White Buffalo!
