The Basic Rifle course instructs students on safe management and proper handling techniques. Given a rifle, students properly engage targets up to 50 yards while implementing basic marksmanship fundamentals. We will focus on body positioning, safety, marksmanship, as well as cleaning and care of the weapon. This class is a one-day comprehensive course of training using a combination of lecture, practical dry fire and live fire shooting.
