CAPRC Marksmanship Clinic "C" 5-17-15

Post by AR15barrels »

Come on out and join us at Angeles for our positional clinic on Sunday May 17th.
We will start out with checking your 100yd zero.
We will teach the traditional seated, kneeling and prone positions including proper sling usage.
Then we will work on improvised shooting positions such as shooting from barricades, rooftops and other various props.
Experienced club members will be on hand to help new shooters.
Costs are $75 for non members or $50 for club members.
Cold drinks and BBQ will be provided as part of the entry/range fee for the day.

This clinic will be held at the Eagles Nest range "D" which is just west of the main rifle line and then up the hill at the Angeles Ranges.
Please show up before 8:30am to get signed in.

Some things to bring:
Precision rifle, sling, eye/ear protection, sunscreen, chamber flag, 60 rounds of match quality ammo, shooting mat or blanket, bipod, some kind of rear bag or sand sock, small notepad to take notes, pencil or pen and a backpack or bag to shoot over.
Bring what you have, don't worry too much about what you don't have.
We always make do with what we have.

This is a Precision Rifle event so if the gun/scope/ammo is not capable of shooting tight groups, it will detract from your overall experience at the shoot.
Please have your rifle zeroed at 100yds and your knobs set to zero.
If you need help with this, we can do it at the shoot, but it takes time that is better spent putting rounds on targets.

We will limit this shoot to 20 people so we can finish up by 2pm.
Please RSVP in this thread if you plan to attend.
Member RSVPs will be accepted after Friday May 1st at noon.
Non-Member RSVPs will be accepted after Friday May 8th at noon
When you RSVP please post something very definite in this thread such as "I will be there".

The following people will coach and run the line:
AR15barrels
autoessentials
oni
Capnjon
thegiff
peerless

The following people are on the schedule as shooters:
citpeks2000
trailtundra

I will be there to help out with everything.

I will bring tents, some positional props, and gear for the clinic.

Also I will bring all of our SAP gear in case any shooters need anything the day of the clinic.

In to help, and practice a bit myself for the SHC match next weekend. I can brink my tank trap.

Bushnell Brawl had a shot where you need to shoot a .5 in dot with the barrel resting on a wire, I plan to build a wire rest and figure out my dope for this shot.

That shot will change depending on the wire, and where your barrel sits on it. I have practiced that very shot there while not at a comp. I use the middle of the wire with the rifle barrel on it at about 1/2 the exposed length from the chassis. That gave me a shot that would go about 1 mil high. It will vary though. I have always argued that they should give you a followup shot on such shenannigans....

Well.... You guys will have a LOT of good hands on instruction time- Nearly as many helpers as shooters. Bummed I cant make it.... Positional is always a great refresher.

...but how often do you get to shoot 2k yards? (the socal 2k+ trial competition Lynnjr setup on calguns- Borrowing a friends 338lm- or 375 cheytac or something)
