SUMMARY:Intermediate Rifle-Rimfire KD– Two Day (Milan\, OH)
DESCRIPTION:This is a RIMFIRE-ONLY event; we will only allow rifles chambered in rimfire cartridges. Ballistics info provided will be focused solely on .22lr ammo. Please leave your centerfire rifle at home.  \nIntermediate Rifle-Rimfire KD Overview\nThis clinic is designed to challenge attendees to accurately shoot their 22lr rifles to known distances out to 200yds.  You will learn the trajectory\, come-ups\, external ballistics and field shooting challenges with the combination of your rifle and your .22lr ammo. This will be best achieved with a scoped rifle although open sights are certainly acceptable. \nPrerequisites: Suggested — RR Basic Rifle course or previous experience with similar programs such as  CMP’s Rimfire Sporter or other .22lr distance shooting programs. \nIf you are unfamiliar with the standing/seated/prone positions and the proper use of the GI loop sling\, you will be frustrated at this event. Position instructions and proper sling usage will be only briefly reviewed.  \nEstimated Ammunition Required: Bring 200 rounds/day. It is important that all ammunition be of the same type (i.e. same bullet weight\, velocity\, and manufacturer) for this event. \nRifle Requirements: You will need a safe rifle chambered in .22lr (centerfire rifles will not be allowed). You can bring your semi-auto\, bolt or lever 22lr rifle for this event. \nPlease make an effort to get a known zero prior to attending (25 yds is a good starting point).  We will be sighting at each distance (50 yds \,100 yds\, 150 yds\, and 200 yds) on Saturday so you can learn your elevation adjustments. Wind corrections will also be covered at the event. \nRequired Equipment: Please plan to bring the following: \n\ncase for your rifle\nsling for your rifle (the US GI sling will work perfectly for this event\, but if you bring another style\, it should be an easily adjustable sling)\nat least two magazines of ten (10) or more round capacity for your rifle (extras magazines are a good idea)\na way to take notes\nhearing protection\neye protection\nplenty of your preferred method of hydration (both plain water and something to replace electrolytes you will lose via sweating is ideal)\n\nOptional Equipment: The following equipment is not required but may come in handy at the event: \n\nweather appropriate clothing (February weather in Ohio can be anything)\nhat with a brim (to deflect flying hot brass)\nshooting mat\nhigh powered binoculars or spotting scope\nfolding chair\nlunch\nsnacks\nsunscreen and/or bug spray\n\nOverview: An Intermediate Rifle event picks up where the Basic Rifle clinic leaves off. Students\, having mastered the fundamentals of marksmanship at 25 yards\, learn to apply their skills at greater distances. Most importantly\, students will learn about their rifle\, their ammo — and their skill level at real distances beyond 25 yards. \nThis “Rimfire-Only” Intermediate Rifle event is focused on practical shooting under field conditions against targets out to 200 yds with a .22lr rifle. We will review the basics of IMC\, the ballistics of the .22lr cartridge at various distances\, and other considerations for shooting your .22lr rifle past 25 yards. \nThis event is scheduled for November so the weather can be cold and potentially wet.  Please plan on dressing accordingly.  The firing line is covered but you need to prepare for bad weather as we post/pull targets down range. \nThe Spirit of 1776\nPicking up where “The Midnight Ride” concludes\, the Spirit of 1776 traces the first full year of the American war for independence. From the high point of the Evacuation of Boston to the lows of early winter of 1776\, follow the Continental Army as they are forced to flee across New York and New Jersey. Learn about the nearly insurmountable challenges they faced and the hope\, faith and daring that pulled victory out of certain defeat. \nIf you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to face down a huge amphibious armada invading New York City\, shiver around a campfire reading about “summer soldiers and sunshine patriots\,” or gamble it all on a desperate crossing of the Delaware River for “Liberty or Death” then you need to hear the Spirit of 1776. \nThis exciting tale will be woven throughout the day’s marksmanship events. \nAdditional Event Information\nThere is a $10/person range fee for non-members that is payable on the day of the event. Please bring cash. \nAdditional Range Information\nPlease plan to bring a lunch for both days.  Parking is available at the range.

This class is named for the “MK262” ammunition used by designated marksmen\, but you can be successful at landing hits with ball ammunition and a standard rifle. Students will learn: \n\nField Shooting to known distances to include target detection\, target identification and basic ballistics calculation\nIntermediate calculation of minutes of angle for precise sight adjustments at all ranges and application to field shooting problems\nData collection for shooting to known distances\nField-expedient ranging of targets at unknown distances\nStudents will be able to challenge the Qualification Test\, Battle Rattle\, and/or Field Shoot at actual distance; exact events may vary by venue and class.\n\nThe Spirit of 1776\nPicking up where “The Midnight Ride” concludes\, the Spirit of 1776 traces the first full year of the American war for independence. From the high point of the Evacuation of Boston to the lows of early winter of 1776\, follow the Continental Army as they are forced to flee across New York and New Jersey. Learn about the nearly insurmountable challenges they faced and the hope\, faith and daring that pulled victory out of certain defeat. \nIf you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to face down a huge amphibious armada invading New York City\, shiver around a campfire reading about “summer soldiers and sunshine patriots\,” or gamble it all on a desperate crossing of the Delaware River for “Liberty or Death” then you need to hear the Spirit of 1776. \nThis exciting tale will be woven throughout the day’s marksmanship events. \nAdditional Event Information\nThere is a $10/person range fee that is payable on the day of the event. \nAdditional Range Information\nFree camping will be available at the range on Saturday night. Participants will have access to the club house for restrooms and limited kitchen support for dinner on Saturday night.

SUMMARY:Field Rifle - Terre Haute\, IN.
DESCRIPTION:Field Rifle Overview\nPrerequisites: Basic Rifle or similar class. \nRifle Requirements: This course is conducted as a Rimfire Known Distance clinic. Any safe\, SCOPED semi-automatic\, bolt or lever gun chambered in .22LR can be used. (Ruger 10/22\, Marlin 795\, Henry Golden Boy\, Savage Rascal\, etc.). Scopes should be 3-9×40 or larger. Fixed power scopes are fine. \nEstimated Ammunition Required: 200 rounds\, ideally the same type. THIS IS A RIMFIRE ONLY EVENT! \nRequired Equipment: \n\nhearing protection\neye protection\nmagazines or speed loaders if needed\nbipod\, bag\, pack or field-expedient rest\nlunch (we’ll be staying on the range during lunch break)\nwater and something to replace electrolytes (what plants crave)\nsnacks\na way to take notes\n\nOptional Equipment: \n\nshooting mat\nrifle/optic manual(s)\nhat with a brim (to deflect flying hot brass)\nknee/elbow pads (we may shoot from kneeling and other positions)\nfolding chair\nsmall tool kit / cleaning kit\n\nClinic Overview: Attendees will develop a working knowledge of the skills needed to zero a rifle\, trajectory\, internal/external ballistics\, “doping the sights” and how to make hits at known distances. Shots will be made at reduced distances of 25-100 yards\, effectively simulating the difficulty of shooting a centerfire rifle at 100-400 yards. \nAll firing in this course will be done from the prone position off a rest and within 100 yards. We will focus on attaining proper come-ups for your rifle/ammo combination. You will save time & money by learning the concepts at this course and then applying them when shooting bigger rifles at longer distances while hunting\, PRS-style shooting\, defensive carbine\, etc. \nThis class is not physically demanding but we will be walking 200yds and getting into and out of the prone position several times throughout the day. \nAttendees should arrive for registration at 8:30 am. Class starts promptly at 9:00! \nTopics of instruction will include the following:\n\nField Shooting to Known Distances: Target Detection/Target Identification\nExternal Ballistics: Effects of Wind\, Temperature and Humidity\nBasic Ballistics Calculations: Using Minutes of Angle (MOA)\nRange Estimation: Field-Expedient methods of determining Range\nData Collection: How to set up a “Dope Book”\n\nShots that Changed History!\nFrom the involvement of Daniel Morgan’s men at the seige of Boston in 1775 to the pivotal shots made by Timothy Murphy at the battle of Yorktown in 1781\, Colonial Marksmen made shots that shifted the course of the American Revolutionary War and\, ultimately\, changed the course of world history! \nHear the tale of these shots – made using the same skills learned in this clinic – woven throughout the day’s course of instruction. \n \nAdditional Information:\nQuestions\, comments\, concerns\, etc.\, please contact the Event Director below. See you on the firing line! \n

SUMMARY:Field Rifle Rimfire-KD – Two Day (Midvale\, OH)
DESCRIPTION:This is a RIMFIRE-ONLY event; we will only allow rifles chambered in .22LR. Please leave your centerfire rifle at home. \nField Rifle Rimfire KD Overview\nThis clinic is designed to challenge attendees to accurately shoot their 22LR rifles to known distances out to 200yds.  You will learn the trajectory\, come-ups\, external ballistics and field shooting challenges with your combination of rifle and .22LR ammo. This will be best achieved with a scoped rifle although open sights are certainly acceptable. \nPrerequisites: Suggested — RR Basic Rifle course or previous experience with similar programs such as  CMP’s Rimfire Sporter or other .22LR distance shooting programs. \nIf you are unfamiliar with the standing/seated/prone positions and the proper use of the GI loop sling\, you will be frustrated at this event. Position instructions and proper sling usage will be only briefly reviewed.  \nEstimated Ammunition Required: Bring 200 rounds/day. It is important that all ammunition be of the same type (i.e. same bullet weight\, velocity\, and manufacturer) for this event. \nRifle Requirements: You will need a safe rifle chambered in .22LR (centerfire rifles will not be allowed). It is best if this is a semi-auto rifle but bolt or lever rifles can be accommodated. \nPlease make an effort to get a known zero prior to attending (25 yds is a good starting point).  We will be sighting in at each distance on Saturday so you can learn your elevation adjustments for each known distance. Wind corrections will also be covered at the event. \nRequired Equipment: Please plan to bring the following: \n\ncase for your rifle\nsling for your rifle (the US GI sling will work perfectly for this event\, but if you bring another style\, it should be an easily adjustable sling)\nat least two magazines of ten (10) or more round capacity for your rifle (extras magazines are a good idea)\na way to take notes\nhearing protection\neye protection\nplenty of your preferred method of hydration (both plain water and something to replace electrolytes you will lose via sweating is ideal)\n\nOptional Equipment: The following equipment is not required but may come in handy at the event: \n\nweather appropriate clothing (February weather in Ohio can be anything)\nhat with a brim (to deflect flying hot brass)\nshooting mat\nhigh powered binoculars or spotting scope\nfolding chair\nlunch\nsnacks\nsunscreen and/or bug spray\n\nOverview: A Field Rifle event picks up where the Basic Rifle clinic leaves off. Students\, having mastered the fundamentals of marksmanship at 25 yards\, learn to apply their skills at greater distances. Most importantly\, students will learn about their rifle\, their ammo — and their skill level at real distances beyond 25 yards. \nThis “Rimfire-Only” Field Rifle is focused on practical shooting under field conditions against targets out to 200 yds with a .22LR rifle. We will review the basics of IMC\, the ballistics of the .22LR cartridge at various distances\, and other considerations for shooting your .22LR rifle past 25 yards. \nThis event is scheduled for February so the weather will most likely be cold and potentially wet.  Please plan on dressing accordingly.  The firing line is covered but you need to prepare for bad weather as we post/pull targets down range. \nThe Spirit of 1776\nPicking up where “The Midnight Ride” concludes\, the Spirit of 1776 traces the first full year of the American war for independence. From the high point of the Evacuation of Boston to the lows of early winter of 1776\, follow the Continental Army as they are forced to flee across New York and New Jersey. Learn about the nearly insurmountable challenges they faced and the hope\, faith and daring that pulled victory out of certain defeat. \nIf you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to face down a huge amphibious armada invading New York City\, shiver around a campfire reading about “summer soldiers and sunshine patriots\,” or gamble it all on a desperate crossing of the Delaware River for “Liberty or Death” then you need to hear the Spirit of 1776. \nThis exciting tale will be woven throughout the day’s marksmanship events. \nAdditional Event Information\nThere is a $10/person range fee that is payable on the day of the event. Please bring cash. \nAdditional Range Information\nFree camping will be available at the range on Friday and Saturday night if you want to challenge the elements.  If not\, participants also have the option to bunk in the main club house starting Friday evening at 6PM. There will be access in the club house to restrooms and limited kitchen support for cooking on Friday and Saturday night. \nContact the Event Director if you are planning on joining us on site. srb4085@reagan.com.

SUMMARY:Rifleman’s Continuum Training - Five Day (Laramie\, WY)
DESCRIPTION:No on-site registration for this event; pre-registration via the website only. \nRifleman’s Continuum Training Overview\nRifleman’s Continuum Training (RCT) condenses three separate Revere’s Riders rifle marksmanship courses (Rifle 125\, Rimfire Rifle 262\, and Rifle 262) into a single five-day event. Participants will begin with learning basic rifle marksmanship with a rimfire rifle on a 25-yard range\, then take their rimfire rifle to longer “known distance” (100 yards) adding factors\, and then prove their mastery of the previously taught skills using a centerfire “service rifle” out to 400 yards. \nPrerequisites: None \nEstimated Ammunition Required: Bringing additional ammunition is never a bad idea. Same type and lot # strongly urged; consistency is a virtue especially when shooting at longer distances! \nRimfire: about 1000 rounds of .22LR (40gr standard velocity [~1050fps]\, packed in at least five 1qt freezer bags; Gemtech\, Aguila\, Federal Gold Medal\, CCI Standard Velocity are all good brands). \nCenterfire: at least 200 rounds of quality (Mag-Tech and Frontier are favorites of mine in 55/62/75gr) ball ammunition appropriate to your centerfire rifle. \nIf you need to ship ammunition to the event\, please contact the Event Director for shipping arrangements. \nRifle Requirements: You will need a safe rifle chambered in .22LR. Magazine-fed semi-automatic rifles generally work best for our classes (for example\, the Ruger 10/22 or Marlin 795)\, but any other type of rifle (tube-fed semi-automatic\, lever-action\, bolt-action\, etc.) can be used as well. For your centerfire “service rifle”\, the ubiquitous MSR/AR-15 is overwhelmingly the favorite. By centerfire standards\, both the platform and the 5.56x45mm ammunition are economical and shooter-friendly. \nYour rifles should have provision for sling attachment on the bottom of the rifle stock. Sling swivels that can accommodate 1¼” inch slings are preferred (Talon is my favorite brand; much more rugged and no more expensive than the competition). \nA backup rifle is recommended in case problems with your primary rifle arise (no loaner rifles will be available). This RCT is intended to challenge both shooter and rifle; finding your rifle is not up to the challenge halfway through can be an unpleasant surprise. \nSight Requirements: This event is designed for scoped rifles though you may attend with other sights. Ideally\, a click-adjustable scope (around 4× fixed magnification or 2-7×\, 3-9×\, etc. variable magnification) AND GI-style iron sights are both available\, maximizing your experience. We will be making sight adjustments throughout the day so having a click-adjustable scope will enhance your experience. Either MOA or Mils are acceptable. \nFor many rifles (to include the Ruger 10/22)\, Tech-Sights makes GI-style iron sights which can be retrofitted. \nRECOMMENDED: \n\n\n\nQuality Scope — cheap scopes will fail you; not if\, but when. Your scope doesn’t have to be expensive\, but a quality brand (these usually include a lifetime warranty) will stack the odds in your favor. If unsure about what to get\, A&A Optics are good people to turn to.\n\n\n\nNOT RECOMMENDED: \n\n\n\nRed Dots — the dot will obscure small targets. Additionally\, red dots lack a reticle for use in measuring angular distances necessary for rangefinding severely handicapping you in the “unknown distance” (UKD) portion of this event.\n“Hunting Style” Iron Sights — the “hunting sights” that come stock with most rifles will not give you the precise sight picture needed for this event. That said\, Tech-Sights makes a good quality aftermarket “GI style” peep & post sight that will fit many rifles\, give a better standard of accuracy\, and is appropriate for this event assuming your eyesight is sufficiently good to clearly see targets at distances of several hundred yards.\n\n\n\nRequired Equipment: Please plan to bring the following gear: \n\ncase for your rifle\ntowel or other cover for your rifle (protection from both rain and sun; black rifles get surprising hot when exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods of time)\nrucksack/pack/etc. to carry all the below gear (we’ll be moving on the range throughout the day):\n\nmilitary-type LCE/webbing/782 gear is a good option for carrying frequently used gear on your person\na hydration backpack (“camelback” style) which can be used handsfree is an excellent option to carry your hydration supplies\n\n\nsturdy field-expedient rest (bipod\, sandbag\, pack\, bedroll\, etc.)\nsling for your rifle (a Magpul RLS\, US GI sling\, or M1907 sling are strongly preferred; “Ching” slings are also acceptable)\nshooting mat or something to lie on when shooting (camping mat\, rug/runner\, etc) is strongly recommended; nothing inflatable!\n\nlimited loaners available on a first come/first served basis; please CALL the Event Director to reserve.\n\n\nrifle cleaning gear:\n\nbore snake or rod\ncleaning solvent and oil\nappropriate cleaning brushes\nrags\, newspaper\, etc.\n\n\n8-10 magazines for your rifle is optimal; having at least 4 clear magazines allowing you to visually confirm loading status is also extremely helpful (if you don’t have that many\, bring whatever you do have)\nhigh powered binoculars\, spotting scope and/or electronic range finder (strongly recommended)\na way to take notes (Rite In The Rain is a popular option given that we’re working outdoors; spiral bound 3×5 cards that can be had cheap at department stores are also a great solution. Bring at least two notebooks\, in ziplock baggies for weather protection\, and plenty of pens)\nmarking pen (contractor grade Sharpie preferred)\ntape measure (the fabric or soft plastic ones you find in the craft section are perfect; a small construction type will do)\nhearing protection (bring an extra set of hearing protection\, both headset and plugs\, in case you should need them)\neye protection\nlunch and snacks (light lunch of field-stable foods to avoid “food coma” afterwards)\nplenty of your preferred method of hydration (both plain water and something to replace electrolytes you will lose via sweating is ideal; plan on 2 gallons/day)\nclothing appropriate for the weather over 5 days (count on rain\, sun\, heat\, bugs\, and cold; loose fitting clothing\, especially around the neck\, is discouraged as hot brass can lodge against the skin and cause a burn. A “boonie” cap is strongly recommended\, as are long sleeved shirts and long trousers. Permethrin treating your clothing and equipment is smart; ticks\, chiggers\, and mosquitoes are no fun.)\nboots or sturdy shoes (we’ll be walking through fields and it will be muddy). NO SANDALS OR SNEAKERS!\nhunter orange/fluorescent vest or boonie\nknee pads\nhat with a brim (to deflect flying hot brass and keep sun off your head)\nassorted ziplock style plastic baggies (keep your powder and all other stuff dry!)\ncamp stool or folding chair\nhand sanitizer\ntoilet paper\n\nPlease have your rifle and accoutrements ready to go; event volunteers are not gunsmiths or armorers and have neither the qualifications nor the time (which would be taken from the other shooters) to put together your rifle. Test fire your rifle(s) for both function and accuracy before coming would be smart… \nRifle 125 (Basic Rifle) Overview\nThis is our signature offering\, based on traditional American riflecraft that teaches “Hits Count!” It is appropriate for a wide breadth of student skill levels. This course lays a sound foundation for students to shoot groups under time pressure from a variety of practical field positions. Rifle 125 includes classroom and range time firing on targets scaled to simulate 100-400yds fired at 25yds. Students learn: \n\nRules for safe rifle handling & range rules\nRifle parts and operation & ammunition\nShooting fundamentals: Five steps to firing each shot\nNatural Point of Aim\nShooting from the prone\, standing and sitting/kneeling positions to include use of the sling\nIntroduction to Sight Adjustments and basic calculation of minutes of angle\n25yd “Morgan’s 13” Classifier\n25yd Rifle Qualifier\n\nRifle 262 Rimfire Known Distance (RFKD) Overview\nShot with .22LR rimfire rifles (Ruger 10/22\, Marlin 795\, etc) at 25/50/75/100yds to introduce the concepts of trajectory\, come-ups\, external ballistics\, and field shooting. Using rimfire rifles saves money and time over centerfire\, while allowing shooters to experience nearly the same practical considerations as shooting a centerfire rifle at longer distances. This clinic completes the training needed to make consistent hits at 500yds (the rifleman’s quarter mile). These are the skills used in CMP and NRA Highpower matches. \nRifle 262 Centerfire Known Distance (KD) Overview\nDesigned around the “service rifle” and fired at 100/200/300/400yds the KD is the capstone event of the week. Rifle mounted optics get best results for ancient eyes\, though iron sights work fine for the younger shooters. \nRange Fees\nThere are no range fees charged to Revere’s Riders shooters at Laramie Rifle Range. \nCamping\nOn-site camping is available at no charge. Camping is dry/primitive only. There will be some form of toilet provided. \nCamping will begin on 8/20 and end the morning of 8/25. Please have everything you need BEFORE coming to the range; the local area may not have everything you need and the road out can be extremely muddy and/or impassable. \nRequired Camping Equipment: \n\nziplock style baggies of all sizes to keep gear dry and pack out your trash\ntoilet paper (kept in above mentioned ziplock baggies)\nhand sanitizer (lots!)\nwater (at least 1 gallon/day beyond the 2 gallons/day required for day shooters)\nBaby Wipes! Baby Wipes! Baby Wipes!\n\nAdditional Questions?\nIf you have any additional questions not answered above\, please contact the Event Director via the contact information below (he is most easily reachable via phone).

It is important that all ammunition be of the same type (i.e. same weight\, manufacturer\, etc) for this event. \nRifle Requirements: You will need a safe rifle chambered in a centerfire caliber of your preference (we will be shooting at distances beyond the effective range of most rimfire calibers). \nPlease make an effort to get a known zero prior to attending (25 yds or 200 yds preferred\, but any known zero will work).  At the very least\, bore sight your AR-platform or bolt rifle by pulling the bolt and aligning the sighting system with the bore at a mark 25 yards away.  If you are not zeroed\, we will make an attempt to get you there but a good zero will facilitate your learning. \nRequired Equipment: Please review our suggestions for appropriate Rifle 262 equipment and plan to bring the following: \n\nsling for your rifle (while a US GI sling will work perfectly well for this event\, many prefer a more easily adjustable sling)\nat least two magazines for your rifle\na way to take notes\nhearing protection\neye protection\nplenty of your preferred method of hydration (both plain water and something to replace electrolytes you will lose via sweating is ideal)\n\nOptional Equipment: The following equipment is not required but may come in handy at the event: \n\ncase for your rifle\nhat with a brim (to deflect flying hot brass)\nshooting mat\nhigh powered binoculars or spotting scope\nfolding chair\nlunch\nsnacks\nsunscreen and/or bug spray\n\nOverview: Rifle 262 picks up where the introductory Rifle 125 clinic leaves off. Students\, having mastered the fundamentals of marksmanship\, learn to apply their skills out to the rifleman’s quarter-mile. Most importantly\, students will learn about their rifle — and themselves. \nField Rifle is focused on practical shooting under field conditions against targets at a variety of ranges\, with a focus on the “sharpshooter’s quarter-mile:” 100-400 yards. This class is named for the “MK262” ammunition used by designated marksmen\, but you can be successful at landing hits with ball ammunition and a standard rifle. Students will learn: \n\nField Shooting to known distances to include target detection\, target identification and basic ballistics calculation\nIntermediate calculation of minutes of angle for precise sight adjustments at all ranges and application to field shooting problems\nData collection for shooting to known distances\nField-expedient ranging of targets at unknown distances\nStudents will be able to challenge the Qualification Test\, Battle Rattle\, and/or Field Shoot at actual distance; exact events may vary by venue and class.\n\nThe Spirit of 1776\nPicking up where “The Midnight Ride” concludes\, the Spirit of 1776 traces the first full year of the American war for independence. From the high point of the Evacuation of Boston to the lows of early winter of 1776\, follow the Continental Army as they are forced to flee across New York and New Jersey. Learn about the nearly insurmountable challenges they faced and the hope\, faith and daring that pulled victory out of certain defeat. \nIf you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to face down a huge amphibious armada invading New York City\, shiver around a campfire reading about “summer soldiers and sunshine patriots\,” or gamble it all on a desperate crossing of the Delaware River for “Liberty or Death” then you need to hear the Spirit of 1776. \nThis exciting tale will be woven throughout the day’s marksmanship events. \nAdditional Event Information\nThere is a $10/person range fee that is payable on the day of the event. \nAdditional Range Information\nFree camping will be available at the range on Saturday night. Participants will have access to the club house for restrooms and limited kitchen support for dinner on Saturday night.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED - RIMFIRE ONLY: Rifleman's Continuum Training - Five Day (Appomattox\, VA)
DESCRIPTION:This is a private event for VCM and One Shepherd members ONLY (if you are not a member of either of these two groups and purchase a ticket anyway\, your order will be cancelled and your money refunded). \nThis event will also be .22LR ONLY (leave the “big boy” rifles at home). \nNo on-site registration for this event; pre-registration via the website only. \nRifleman’s Continuum Training Overview\nRifleman’s Continuum Training (RCT) condenses three separate Revere’s Riders rifle marksmanship courses into a single five-day event. Participants will begin with learning basic rifle marksmanship with a rimfire rifle on a 25-yard range\, then take their rimfire rifle to longer “known distance”\, and finally learn techniques for field expedient range estimation to get hits at “unknown distance”. \nPrerequisites: None \nEstimated Ammunition Required: About 1000 rounds of .22LR (40gr standard velocity [~1050fps]\, packed in at least five 1qt freezer bags; Gemtech\, Aguila\, Federal Gold Medal\, CCI Standard Velocity are all good brands; bringing additional ammunition is never a bad idea). Same type and lot # strongly urged; consistency is a virtue especially when shooting at longer distances! \nIf you need to ship ammunition to the event\, please contact the Event Director for shipping arrangements. \nRifle Requirements: You will need a safe rifle chambered in .22LR. Magazine-fed semi-automatic rifles generally work best for our classes (for example\, the Ruger 10/22 or Marlin 795)\, but any other type of rifle (tube-fed semi-automatic\, lever-action\, bolt-action\, etc.) can be used as well. Bring whatever rifle you have and we will work with you. Your rifle should have provision for sling attachment on the bottom of the rifle stock. Sling swivels that can accommodate 1¼” inch slings are preferred (Talon is my favorite brand; much more rugged and no more expensive than the competition). \nA backup rifle is recommended in case problems with your primary rifle arise (no loaner rifles will be available). This RCT is intended to challenge both shooter and rifle; finding your rifle is not up to the challenge halfway through can be an unpleasant surprise. \nSight Requirements: This event is designed for scoped rifles though you may attend with other sights. Ideally\, a click-adjustable scope (around 4× fixed magnification or 2-7×\, 3-9×\, etc. variable magnification). We will be making sight adjustments throughout the day so having a click-adjustable scope will enhance your experience. Either MOA or Mils are acceptable. \nRECOMMENDED: \n\n\n\nQuality Scope — cheap scopes will fail you; not if\, but when. Your scope doesn’t have to be expensive\, but a quality brand (these usually include a lifetime warranty) will stack the odds in your favor. If unsure about what to get\, A&A Optics are good people to turn to.\n\n\n\nNOT RECOMMENDED: \n\n\n\nRed Dots — the dot will obscure small targets. Additionally\, red dots lack a reticle for use in measuring angular distances necessary for rangefinding severely handicapping you in the “unknown distance” (UKD) portion of this event.\nIron Sights — the “hunting sights” that come stock with most rifles will not give you the precise sight picture needed for this event. That said\, Tech-Sights makes a good quality aftermarket “GI style” peep & post sight that will fit many rifles\, give a better standard of accuracy\, and is appropriate for this event assuming your eyesight is sufficiently good to clearly see targets at distances of several hundred yards.\n\n\n\nRequired Equipment: Please plan to bring the following gear: \n\ncase for your rifle\ntowel or other cover for your rifle (protection from both rain and sun; black rifles get surprising hot when exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods of time)\nrucksack/pack/etc. to carry all the below gear (we’ll be moving on the range throughout the day):\n\nmilitary-type LCE/webbing/782 gear is a good option for carrying frequently used gear on your person\na hydration backpack (“camelback” style) which can be used handsfree is an excellent option to carry your hydration supplies\n\n\nsturdy field-expedient rest (bipod\, sandbag\, pack\, bedroll\, etc.)\nsling for your rifle (a Magpul RLS\, US GI sling\, or M1907 sling are strongly preferred; “Ching” slings are also acceptable)\nshooting mat or something to lie on when shooting (camping mat\, rug/runner\, etc) is strongly recommended; nothing inflatable!\n\nlimited loaners available on a first come/first served basis; please CALL the Event Director to reserve.\n\n\nrifle cleaning gear:\n\nbore snake or rod\ncleaning solvent and oil\,\nappropriate cleaning brushes\nrags\, newspaper\, etc.\n\n\n8-10 magazines for your rifle is optimal; having at least 4 clear magazines allowing you to visually confirm loading status is also extremely helpful (if you don’t have that many\, bring whatever you do have)\nhigh powered binoculars\, spotting scope and/or electronic range finder (strongly recommended)\na way to take notes (Rite In The Rain is a popular option given that we’re working outdoors; spiral bound 3×5 cards that can be had cheap at department stores are also a great solution. Bring at least two notebooks\, in ziplock baggies for weather protection\, and plenty of pens)\nmarking pen (contractor grade Sharpie preferred)\ncompass (lensatic type preferred)\nprotractor and ruler\nclipboard\ncalculator (your phone probably has one that will be more than sufficient; however\, make sure whatever calculator you bring can be used through an entire day without needing to be plugged in to charge)\ntape measure (the fabric or soft plastic ones you find in the craft section are perfect; a small construction type will do)\nhearing protection (bring an extra set of hearing protection\, both headset and plugs\, in case you should need them)\neye protection\nlunch and snacks (light lunch of field-stable foods to avoid “food coma” afterwards)\nplenty of your preferred method of hydration (both plain water and something to replace electrolytes you will lose via sweating is ideal; plan on 2 gallons/day)\nclothing appropriate for the weather over 5 days (count on rain\, sun\, heat\, bugs\, and cold; loose fitting clothing\, especially around the neck\, is discouraged as hot brass can lodge against the skin and cause a burn. A “boonie” cap is strongly recommended\, as are long sleeved shirts and long trousers. Permethrin treating your clothing and equipment is smart; ticks\, chiggers\, and mosquitoes are no fun.)\nboots or sturdy shoes (we’ll be walking through fields and it will be muddy). NO SANDALS OR SNEAKERS!\nhunter orange/fluorescent vest or boonie\nknee pads\nhat with a brim (to deflect flying hot brass and keep sun off your head)\nassorted ziplock style plastic baggies (keep your powder and all other stuff dry!)\ncamp stool or folding chair\nhand sanitizer\ntoilet paper\n\nPlease have your rifle and accoutrements ready to go; event volunteers are not gunsmiths or armorers and have neither the qualifications nor the time (which would be taken from the other shooters) to put together your rifle. Test fire your rifle(s) for both function and accuracy before coming would be smart… \nRifle 125 (Basic Rifle) Overview\nThis is our signature offering\, based on traditional American riflecraft that teaches “Hits Count!” It is appropriate for a wide breadth of student skill levels. This course lays a sound foundation for students to shoot groups under time pressure from a variety of practical field positions. Rifle 125 includes classroom and range time firing on targets scaled to simulate 100-400yds fired at 25yds. Students learn: \n\nRules for safe rifle handling & range rules\nRifle parts and operation & ammunition\nShooting fundamentals: Five steps to firing each shot\nNatural Point of Aim\nShooting from the prone\, standing and sitting/kneeling positions to include use of the sling\nIntroduction to Sight Adjustments and basic calculation of minutes of angle\n25yd “Morgan’s 13” Classifier\n25yd Rifle Qualifier\n\nRifle 262 Rimfire Known Distance (RFKD) Overview\nShot with .22LR rimfire rifles (Ruger 10/22\, Marlin 795\, etc) at 25/50/75/100yds to introduce the concepts of trajectory\, come-ups\, external ballistics\, and field shooting. Using rimfire rifles saves money and time over centerfire\, while allowing shooters to experience nearly the same practical considerations as shooting a centerfire rifle at longer distances. This clinic completes the training needed to make consistent hits at 500yds (the rifleman’s quarter mile). These are the skills used in CMP and NRA Highpower matches. \nRifle 262 Rimfire Unknown Distance (RFUKD) Overview\nShot with .22LR rimfire rifles (Ruger 10/22\, Marlin 795\, etc) out to 200yds adds the previously mentioned skills to the concepts of target detection and range estimation. Data is created\, then confirmed with good marksmanship. This allows the skills necessary in precision rifle (PRS\, NRL etc) programs to be taught on the cheap (.22LR ammunition at <$0.10/round vs .338 Lapua at >$5.00/round) and on ranges with limited distance. Rifle mounted optics get best results\, though the concepts can certainly be learned with iron sights. These are the skills that allow hunters in Wyoming to “get my elk at 1200 yards”. \nRange Fees\nRange fee payable on site (minimal to cover toilet cost and to be determined; cash only / exact change only). Event Director will notify you of the exact cost prior to the event. \nCamping\nOn-site camping is available at no charge. Camping is dry/primitive only. There will be some form of toilet provided. \nCamping will begin on 4/18 and end the morning of 4/22. Please have everything you need BEFORE coming to the range; the local area may not have everything you need and the road out can be extremely muddy and/or impassable. \nRequired Camping Equipment: \n\nziplock style baggies of all sizes to keep gear dry and pack out your trash\ntoilet paper (kept in above mentioned ziplock baggies)\nhand sanitizer (lots!)\nwater (at least 1 gallon/day beyond the 2 gallons/day required for day shooters)\nBaby Wipes! Baby Wipes! Baby Wipes!\n\nAdditional Questions?\nIf you have any additional questions not answered above\, please contact the Event Director via the contact information below (he is most easily reachable via phone).

SUMMARY:Rifle 262 (Rimfire Known Distance / Centerfire Unknown Distance Clinic) 2-Day (Liberty\, IN)
DESCRIPTION:Rimfire Known Distance / Centerfire Unknown Distance Clinic Overview\nThis 2-day clinic is designed to familiarize attendees with the basics of shooting known distance (“KD”) and to introduce the concepts of trajectory\, come-ups\, external ballistics\, and field shooting. On the second day\, we will put all this knowledge to work shooting targets at unknown distance (“UKD”). This will be best achieved with scoped rifles although open sights are acceptable. \n\nDay 1—Rimfire Known Distance\, shot with .22LR rimfire rifles (Ruger 10/22\, Marlin 795\, etc.) at shorter distances to save money and time (please only bring .22LR to ease our job in keeping track of cartridge ballistics)\nDay 2—Centerfire Unknown Distance\, shot with centerfire rifles (AR\, AK\, bolt guns\, etc.) at ranges up to 750 yards\n\nPrerequisites: Suggested—Rifle 125 or Rifle 223 (Carbine)\, or previous experience with CMP\, High Power or NRA disciplines. \nIf you cannot consistently hit a 5″ circle at 100 yards from the prone position\, you will be frustrated at Rifle 262. Material from Basic Rifle will be only briefly reviewed. . \nEstimated Ammunition Required: 150 rounds of .22LR (or other rimfire ammunition) and 60 rounds of centerfire (no steel core/AP/etc.). \nIf you’d like to attend this clinic but cannot source ammunition please contact the Event Director prior to the event. \nRifle Requirements: You will need two rifles for this event: \n\nDay 1—a safe rifle chambered in .22LR. On the first day\, we will be firing at reduced distances of 25-100 yards which effectively simulate the challenges of obtaining hits with a centerfire rifle at 100-400 yards. Single-shot\, bolt-action\, lever-action\, semi-auto\, etc.\, are all acceptable. As long as it’s a safe rifle chambered in .22LR you’re good to go!\nDay 2—a safe rifle chambered in your choice of centerfire calibers. ARs\, AKs\, bolt guns\, etc.\, are all plenty good for what we’ll be doing. We’ll take the concepts you learned on your “little rifle” and put them into practice on the big boys!\n\nIf you’d like to attend this clinic but do not have a suitable rifle\, please contact the Event Director prior to the event. \nScope Requirements: This event is designed for scoped rifles though you may attend with other sights. Ideally\, a click-adjustable scope (around 4× fixed magnification\, 2-7×\, 3-9×\, etc. variable magnification for the .22LRs\, bigger is OK for the centerfires). We will be making sight adjustments throughout the day so having a click-adjustable scope will enhance your experience. \nIf you’d like to attend this clinic but do not have a good scope\, please contact the Event Director prior to the event. \nRequired Equipment: Please review our suggestions for appropriate Rifle 262 equipment and plan to bring the following: \n\nA sturdy\, field-expedient rest (bipod/sandbag/pack/bedroll\, etc.; USGI slings are acceptable but not ideal)\nNotebook and Pencil/Pen\nCalculator (you probably have one on your cell phone)\nTape Measure (the fabric or soft plastic ones you find in the craft section are perfect\, small construction type will do)\nhearing protection\neye protection\nHydration\, Lunch & Snacks (water/electrolytes\, light lunch of field-stable foods)\nBag/Rucksack/Pack/Etc. to carry all the above (we’ll be moving throughout the weekend)\nBoots or Sturdy Shoes (we’ll be walking through the field and it may be muddy)\nDressed appropriately (LAYERED!!!) for two days in the field\n\nOptional Equipment: The following equipment is not required but may come in handy at the event: \n\nshooting mat\nhigh powered binoculars or spotting scope\nelectronic range finder\ncompass\nsunscreen/bug spray\ntowel/change of clothes\n\nLoaner Firearms and Scopes: Loaner firearms and scopes suitable for use at this event are generally available but limited. Please contact the Event Director prior to the event if you would like to request a loaner firearm. \nSummary: This 2-Day Rifle 262 clinic picks up where the introductory Rifle 125 and Rifle 223 (Carbine) courses leave off. Students\, having mastered the fundamentals of marksmanship and familiarity with their rifles\, learn to conceptualize and implement the fundamentals of field rifle marksmanship.
