1 on 1 Long Range Coaching session

Each session is custom-tailored to your experience level, your rifle, and your goals. We won’t waste time in a classroom — this is hands-on, real-world training that gives you the tools to shoot with confidence at long range.

This is more than just pulling a trigger. You'll walk away understanding how to truly run your rifle at long range. Topics covered include:

• Scope setup & leveling – ensuring your optic is square to your bore
• Zeroing techniques – how to properly zero and verify at distance
• MOA vs MIL – understanding reticles, subtensions, and scope tracking
• First vs Second Focal Plane scopes – and how to use them effectively
• Ballistics explained – G1 vs G7, bullet drop, flight time, and velocity decay
• Kestrel & ballistic calculator setup – getting accurate real-world DOPE
• Shooting positions – proper prone body alignment and recoil management
• Trigger control & breathing discipline – reducing shooter-induced error
• Wind reading fundamentals – using mirage, flags, and environmental clues
• Mirage spotting – learning to see heat movement and directional flow
• Target engagement process – spot, range, dial, shoot, confirm
• Using a spotter – effective communication and impact correction
• Rifle and ammo matching – twist rates, barrel length, and bullet stability
• Chronograph data collection – using muzzle velocity for drop calculation
• Building DOPE charts – logging your real hits for field use
• Calling impacts & misses – learning to self-correct
• Basic equipment selection & setup – bags, bipods, brakes, slings, and more
