What is Precision Rifle 2: Practical Applications?

Precision Rifle 2: Practical Applications will apply the fundamentals covered in PR1 to practical shooting situations.

If you’re looking for an intro to competition shooting, or you’re a hunter that wants to improve your confidence when taking that critical shot, this is the course for you.

We’ll start with a brief review of the fundamentals then immediately move right into positional shooting, unconventional support positions, and shooting from a tripod.

Day 2 will consist of troubleshooting errors in every aspect of long-range shooting, a variety of shooting drills, reading the wind, and finish off with a friendly competition encompassing everything learned in PR1 and PR2.
