Long Range Precision
About our long range courses
The lead long-range instructor, JT, has 20+ year service to this country and has provided real-world experience that translates into success on life's battlefields. He doesn't spend his time in front of you shoving "war stories" down your throat though! One of the largest factors to becoming a Rev-Tac Instructor is that you are humble enough to recognize that your personal experiences aren't for everyone. That's why he has hand-picked some of the best instructors out there that are more than qualified but love teaching your grandma as much as much as they love teaching "cool guys".
Beginner's or experienced marksmen will enjoy this opportunity to engage targets from 100-1600m (That's a mile!) Caliber of rifle doesn't matter, but it will obviously affect the range you are capable of achieving. We've had everything from .204's, .223, .243, .308, .300, 6.5, 7mm, .338, 50 and a bunch of others out here! You will learn to push the limits of whatever you bring!
Here's a quick run down of what we cover:
Reading wind, mirage and understanding the effect that it will have on your round.
Ballistics: This will be down and dirty. We could teach a whole two-day class just on this, but you'd sleep through most of it!
Range Estimation, naked eye, LRF's and milling with your reticle.
Understanding the make up and functions of your scope. Strengths and weaknesses of your optic.
Reading Trace.
Mils/MOA breakdown.
How to spot: The unsung hero of LRP shooting!
Fundamentals of long range marksmanship: mastering these will pay dividends with any firearm you pick up!
Gear and rifle setups: what works and what doesn't. By the end of this course, you will know what you love and hate about your current setup.
Rapid Target Engagements (RTE).
Hold-Offs, Kentucky Windage aka SWAG (Sniper's Wild Ass Guess).
Rev-Tac's lead instructors for these course are U.S. Army Snipers and Marine Scout Snipers that manage to take the mystery out of long-range engagements, making it simple and fun! We make every shot we take during this training count, so start wrapping your head around "slow and methodical" instead of "spray and pray".
