SUMMARY:Combat Rifle Fundamentals 8FEB26
DESCRIPTION:Combat Rifle Fundamentals is a technical marksmanship class which will teach the student the skills necessary to shoot a rifle accurately and confidently up to 4 minutes of angle which equates to 100% hit probability on a man sized target at 400 meters. Our primary focus in shooting stance will be to learn the Rifleman’s prone position\, also known as the unsupported prone position. This class is calm and slow\, and does not require any running\, crawling\, or other athletic movement. \nThis class is part of the Combat Rifle School. We schedule small group instruction based upon the your request. This program consists of the following 50 unique training modules\, plus additional practical and field exercises. If you would like to participate in this program\, the price is $995 for the first 6 months\, then $165.83 per month thereafter.
