Definitely interested especially after talking to Gord out at Twin City on the weekend about this course, email sent hopefully there is space left in the class.
 
15 seats available. For those that have already registered and cannot make it please let me know in advance so folks on the waiting list can attend.
 
Great course and an opportunity to flatten the the learning curve a little when it comes to long range shooting. Highly recommend it. Just save your money now so you can buy your new rifle and all the goodies with it once you get bitten by the LR bug!
 
6 seats left.

Anybody that has PM'ed me off of the Nutz regarding interest in the class, clock is ticking. 22 seats and then the class is full.
 
It was well worth the trip. I learned all kinds of little things, most of which I forgot five minutes later :). I learned how to properly go about mounting a scope. Appearantly you don't red face torque all the screws:confused:. Lots of other things too. Like stop buying cheap crap scopes. And my back doesn' really like prone. I probably won't take up the really long distance stuff ( time and $$$) but am learning stuff to help my shorter range game. Looking forward to the next classes.
