What is the Advanced Practical Rifle class?

The class focuses on isolating individual rifle skills and re-learning or refining them with advanced techniques--the same techniques Kyle has used to propel him to the top.

The goal is to make you a better rifleman within all practical distances for a modern AR or AK (from point blank to 600 yards.) You will learn efficient, proven methods and work on your skills from the ground up.

Here is your opportunity to learn from the world's best rifle shooter. Only 12 students are allowed in the class to ensure a high-level of attention and improved performance by the end of the class.
