The Barrett Mountain Precision Rifle Course offers seasoned long-range shooters an immersive and physically challenging training experience. Over three days, participants receive advanced instruction in ballistics, target engagement, environmental assessment, and rifle setup, all within diverse mountain terrain. Shooters will learn to range targets, apply Max Point Blank and Speed Drop techniques, and engage targets from 100 to 1500 yards using Barrett’s MRAD, MRAD SMR, and 98B rifles. Physical fitness is required, as students must be capable of transporting their gear across steep, uneven terrain. Course tuition includes lunch; lodging is available separately. Rental rifles and ammo packages are also offered.
