This course offers a basic education in rifle shooting.   The course begins with a review of firearm safety and range rules, then moves into rifle nomenclature, ammunition knowledge, firearm care and maintenance and the fundamentals of rifle shooting. On the range the instructor will combine the classroom drills with live fire exercises developed to improve the students shooting.  Each student will be evaluated for their understanding of grip, sight picture, trigger and breath control, and rifle shooting stances, but above all….SAFETY.  Each student will be required to demonstrate the proper loading, unloading and immediate action drills for their particular firearm. It is preferable that students bring with them to class an AR platform rifle. We have several of these rifles available for rental.

All instruction materials, range time, and targets are provided by Crosshairs Texas.
