Rifle shooting training school?

Post by Shooterer »

Where could a person go and pay for one on one coaching for small-bore rifle shooting? Are there any professional academies or ranges that have daily or weekly training sessions.

I am self taught, started late in life, have top of the line equipment, have read the suggested books and I'm not getting any better. (Now I known how golfers feel.)

Somewhere warm and sunny would help with getting the Mrs. to buy in.

Give the US Army Marksmanship Smallbore Rifle Team at Fort Benning, GA. a call.
I can't find the number, maybe someone here can tune in.
They may be able to point you in the right direction.
Many of their retired shooters may offer personal training.

George Harris runs the NRA smallbore class every summer in PA. It is an EXCELLENT learning opportunity. The class runs Monday thru Friday and the weekend is a smallbore tournament. You can email him at handlebargbh@verizon.net
