    Elevating Marksmanship Skills

    Attending the 4-day Scoped Rifle Class was an immersive journey into the art of marksmanship. Each day was meticulously crafted to focus on shooting fundamentals, from mastering positions to calculating elevation holds and engaging targets swiftly. The instructors' expertise shone through as they imparted their knowledge with clarity and patience, guiding us to refine our techniques and correct any ingrained habits from bench shooting. Their insightful feedback was instrumental in my progress, providing tangible areas for improvement.

    What truly set this class apart was its emphasis on practical application. Through a series of live-fire exercises at varying distances, we were challenged to put theory into practice, honing our skills under real-world conditions.

    By the end of the course, I not only gained a deeper understanding of precision shooting but also a newfound confidence in my abilities. Armed with a toolkit of techniques and strategies, I left the class with a clear path for continued improvement.

    In summary, the Scoped Rifle Class offered a comprehensive and engaging experience that left a lasting impact. Whether you're a novice shooter or a seasoned marksman, this course provides the perfect opportunity to elevate your skills and take your shooting to new heights. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking to refine their marksmanship abilities and embrace the thrill of precision shooting.

    5/5 stars! Sign up if you want to "send it, and bang"!

    I thought I knew marksmanship from 15 years of training in the US Army, including 4 years serving in the infantry. This course was an eye opener and I really feel like this has opened me up to whole new tier in marksmanship.

    John and Brian did an incredible job going over everything you need to know to get started in long range rifle marksmanship and everything to advance your skills.

    John really set the tone for a really great learning environment and was super approachable. He is not a "stuffy" instructor and keeps things light while he fills your head with his encyclopedic knowledge on long range marksmanship. The course material is applicable to all sorts of real world applications, everything from military, hunting, self defense, and competition shooting.

    My favorite parts of this course were fixing bad habits, relearning positional shooting fundamentals, learning how to use a ballistics calculator, understanding speed drops, using new equipment such as bipods, shooting bags, and tripods. Also, I learned that milradians are king and I'm never going to buy another MOA or BDC optic!

    The best part of this course are all the hands on drills, applying the new skills, and making steel ring out to 800 yards! Every day you get a chance to apply what you learned. I feel equipped to go out and continue my training after taking this course.

    Last but not least, I was also able to expand my network with like minded classmates that were a pleasure to learn and train beside.

    The path is the goal.

    This was I believe my fourth class with Rughi, and first with Brian on board. Both of them offered a wealth of knowledge and experience which compliment well. Every time I take a class with Rughi I walk away with a fresh perspective on the multitude of ways in which I can handle a firearm and approach marksmanship as a whole. I think fundamentally his strength as a teacher lies in creating a learning environment which supports self analysis while building a solid foundation in practical and modern marksmanship techniques. You will learn to be a much better shooter over the duration of this class, but more importantly you will be given an entire suite of self assessment tools which will allow you to develop, self correct, and progress over time. From start to finish there was a range of experience levels at the class I attended, from amateur to professional level shooters, all of whom developed new skills and demonstrated growth in some way. Safety was never overlooked, medical equipment was on site and a casualty plan was always reviewed and in place, which shows significant situational awareness and a level of professionalism that I appreciate. I think if you are looking for an ego free, well rounded and professional setting to grow this is the pipeline to that goal. This course is information dense and will leave you feeling confident and in a place where you can take a shot knowing that even if you miss you have the tools available to correct your shot and hit!

    An absolute beginner's review

    Over the past year I've had a growing interest in shooting long distance. My previous experience with firearms was somewhat limited, typically at an indoor range or trap shoot, both instructed and casual. Last year I picked up my first bolt action and for months it just sat in my safe, untouched. That was until I caught a post by John hosting a new long range course in my area.

    The outline was extremely comprehensive and I felt ill equipped to start my journey with such a broad range of skill learning and expectation. So I dropped John a message and he was quick to point out all experience levels were welcomed. I was skeptical, but fair enough.

    I can honestly say without exaggeration this was the single most rewarding firearms training course I’ve ever taken. John and Brian went above and beyond to make every student feel comfortable and confident in both their learning, their gear, and execution. On day 1 I’d never fired a round through my rifle. Within 24 hours I hit a steel target at 800 yards. By day 4 myself and others were consistently and reliably landing first round impacts from 200-650 yards on the move from multiple positions.

    To Josh and Scoob’s point: everything from safety, to history, to tools and technology, positions, comprehension of technique and more; John and Brian have built an extremely effective curriculum that applies across the full spectrum of experience while maintaining a fun & engaging atmosphere throughout.

    Thank you both!

    Debating a class? Don’t! Worth every second!

    24 hours post class and i am still trying to process how John and Brian have found a way to instill multiple years of technique, skill and information into my marksmanship journey in a matter of four days. The shear amount of improvement and knowledge I have gained in four days learning from these two while having the most fun possible is unfathomable.

    I grew up hunting and like a lot of people I “thought I knew how to shoot pretty well”. That couldn’t have been farther from the truth. Yes, I could shoot a gun and sometimes hit my target. After this class I am extremely confident that I can “doink” targets out to 1,000 yards all day long.

    They go through every little detail that is actually useful. I didn’t hear a single tip, suggestion, class session, or demonstration that didn’t excel my skills as a shooter or give me the tools needed to keep training the right fundamentals on my own.

    Theirs is no doubt that I will push and recommend any class backed by weapon snatcher. Whether you have never shot a rifle or you are an experienced marksman smacking steel at 1,500 yards. These guys will teach you things that you didn’t even know exist.

    This class has given me the confidence to jump into the world of competion shooting, specifically NLR Hunter. I cannot thank these guys enough for dedicating their lives to training others.

    If you’re debating doing a class with them. Just message them and ask questions. They are extremely helpful.

    Don't know what rifle to bring?

    Whether you're shooting a bolt action or semi-auto, this course is for you.
