Description

This is a hybrid class, a combination of a Precision Rifle Study Group day with elements of Fighting Rifle 2 & 3, plus adding more physical elements (e.g. hiking). This day will be an opportunity for prospective students to determine if they are up to the challenge of SPR School. Students will have the chance to assess their own level of physical fitness, shooting ability, and test out/shake-down their gear ahead of time. SPR School graduates will assess how suitable prospective students are for SPR School and make gear recommendations.
