SPR/DMR 2-Day Course

[RXM]

1MOA Solutions (www.1MOAsolutions.com) has agreed to host a 2-Day SPR/DMR course in Eastern PA in the month of October (exact date and location is TBD; will update when available). I'm posting this early so that folks get as much advanced notice.

Course will be taught by Adam Wilson who had multiple deployments as a U.S. Army Sniper. His complete bio can be found here: http://1moasolutions.com/mission. If you've always had an interest in precision shooting, this is your chance.

Minimum class size is six and I think we may keep it at 8 max.

2 DAY Special Purpose Rifle / Designated Marksman (2 Day Live Fire Course)

The SPR/DM course will challenge shooters to execute the fundamentals in the most efficient manner possible in order to successfully engage targets from 25 to 600 yards under adverse conditions. Training will begin with a refresher on the basic fundamentals of rifle marksmanship before progressing to data collection, alternate firing positions, and the use of cover and concealment.

Upon course completion students will be able to demonstrate a core understanding of rifle marksmanship and the ability to shoot under both self-induced and exterior induced stress. Training will culminate in a live fire exercise that requires shooters to positively identify, determine the range to, and engage unknown distance targets under a time standard.

TRAINING OBJECTIVES
• Safety
• Equipment selection and placement
• Loading / Unloading Procedures
• Weapon Malfunction Clearance Drills
• Ballistic theory and practical application
• Building your position, fundamentals of marksmanship, trigger control, recoil management
• Cold Bore Data and Zeroing of Weapon Systems
• Target Engagements from 50 to 600 meters (shooter dependent)
• Shot placement strategy
• Hold Over / Under Drills
• Multiple Target Engagement
• Use of available cover / concealment
• Alternate Firing positions

Note: A low light / night vision operations component can be included dependent on range restrictions and client requirements.

There are quality optics that are budget friendly. Adam is doing me a solid traveling to PA to do a course for a small class and for only $250 for the course. You will probably not see a price like that again...

I agree, a great price, and if anyone has a loaner rifle/optic I'll start looking for match 556 right away, but money's tight

I would love to do this, but aside from money, the "high-end" AR of mine is still in pieces in a box.

PSA has a 50 round boxes of CBC 77gr OTM for $30 plus shipping. So, I'm calculating $305ish for 500 rounds.

$250.00 is an extremely reasonable price.
