If you can only take one rifle, which one is it? That question has been asked by a lot of very capable men. My answer is the Hybrid Carbine, a 11.5-16 in accurate 5.56 rifle with a 1-6, 1-8 or 1-10 power LPVO. With this setup you can shoot anything from CQB distances to 600-700 yards and beyond. This course will work carbine fundamentals and then jump right in to medium distance shooting (out to 500-700 yards). 

Course curriculum will include:

• an intro to external ballistics
• understanding MOA's and MRAD
• ballistic calculator use
• truing your rifle 

and more.
