Understand that this is a basic fundamentals course. Much of the info you might be taught may be old news to you but I will guarantee that you will still learn some things to help improve your game. It will be worth your time. Even I, who have been doing quite well this past year in this game will learn a few things from the new course. The instructor will be Seth. He is a former marine scout sniper that was also an instructor. I don't care how much you think you know... you will learn something at course A. There's much more to making shots at 400yds then you might think. It all starts with the basics and a lot of good work at 100. Just because someone can shoot groups at 100 all day long doesn't mean they're doing it right and it certainly doesn't mean your in the know how to move out to LR.

Btw... course A will most likely be a prerequisite for course B which will definatly be a prerequisite for course D. Course C will be a posistional course and will be just as valuable to learn as any of the others.

Definitely looking forward to the revamped Course A. I KNOW I'll learn something new!!

What is this course D that you're talking about though? I recall having course A, B and C only.

I think they're expanding course A to course A & B. Course B will become course C and course C will become course D.

Does that make sense.

So bummed, ordered my tripod and paid extra for second day mail. That's the way it goes. Hope to make the class next month.

All good things will come to those who wait.
Your gonna like it, and it'll definately be worth the wait.

I wish the slot is more than 12 shooters, maybe 15-20 shooters? Is that too many to have for quality instruciom for group class setting?

We are limited to 12 benches.
We are talking about going to 16 or 18 shooters, but it means two shooters per lane.
That means getting up and down and shooting two groups, OR squeezing two shooters into the 3ft openings between benches.

Ideally there should be 1 instructor per 4 students. For a class of 20 students there would be a need for 5 instructors. I don't think that would be a huge problem. I think it comes down to logistical reasons ie the number of firing positions we would be able to reserve. That would be something I would need to discuss with the club leaders. As far as quality instruction goes, if you had the instructor staff to meet the criteria I stated above there would be no loss in quality.

Sorry randall, you type faster than me.

Do we have to go thru the sign up process all over again or those that are signed up get a spot in the rescheduled clinic

Posted: **Wed Jan 19, 2011 8:15 pm**

Bummer... but I can wait. Looking forward to it.

Meanwhile more research on reloading.

Posted: **Wed Jan 19, 2011 9:16 pm**

I still have gear in the mail. And, I need a range day to dial in my zero anyway. So, I'm glad it's been postponed until Feb because it's better than waiting until May.

But my sympathies to those who were on deck for this Saturday.

As far as class size, I'd rather wait longer for a small class than go through a large class earlier. Quality over quantity.

Posted: **Wed Jan 19, 2011 9:20 pm**

is the course A for this weekend still on? And if so, is there a space for me? What time should I be there? How much ammo should i bring?

Thanks in advance

The CaPRC new precision rifle shooter clinic postponed. It will be in February. The first post in this thread explains why.

So I gotta get ready for my course A and since I got my day off to go shooting this weekend, any of the experienced shooter going to ASR who can help me mount a scope and help me zero? I do have USO bore sight but don't have torque driver to set the screw on rings. Can someone help please?

Thank you,

I'll be at ASR from 9 am to 12 on Saturday. I'm not much of an experienced shooter, but I'll have a torque wrench with me. Look for the tall korean guy on the left side of the rifle range.

Hi Jay,
Thanks for the offer. I will be there this weekend. I may be able to have my scope mounted before I head out.
I will see you then. I am a short korean dude with red ford truck

I need some help zeroing my rifle as well.
Help a newbie and be blessed!

Club leaders, although I am bummed about the late cancelation of the course "A" class, I am confident it was for good reason. The leaders of CaPRC have been fantastic with regards to promoting this sport in LA. This web page is a wealth of knowledge and the monthly matches are well organized, professional, friendly and always a great learning experience. Thank you for VOLUNTEERING your time to "pay it forward" to those of us who have much to learn. As someone already mentioned, I hope that the original 12 people that committed to signing up for Saturdays class get grandfathered into the February class. I am sure I speak for many others like me who do not post much; thank you for being so efficient and informative.

Posted: **Thu Jan 20, 2011 7:06 pm**

i am actually glad for the postponed class. i might actually be able to make it and there is absolutly no way i would have made it this weekend. and my rifle might be finished. even if the rifle isnt done i will still show up ,pay attention, and bring my AR for the day.

Posted: **Thu Jan 20, 2011 7:46 pm**

Looks like I'll probably be at angeles saturday morning as well...

Posted: **Thu Jan 20, 2011 9:47 pm**

I want to thank every body for their patients while we rework your training courses. Let me assure you that it will
be well worth the wait. The information that you will receive in these classes is not something that is taught unless
you sign on the dotted line and pledge and oath to defend the Constitution. It will consist of 2+ hours of class time,
with a written quiz, followed by hours of 100yrd range time. So be patient and get ready for what we hope will be
some thing special.
And yes we are adjusting the B and C courses also.

Posted: **Fri Jan 21, 2011 12:15 am**

Patiently waiting...

Just got my scope mounted. Just need to get it correctly torqued down. Hopefully I get everything ready for the class.
Thanks all for your help!

If I remember correctly one of the things to bring to class was your rifle's ballistic or dope print out. Where can I get one? Is there any ballistic program for iPhone you guys recommend?
Just trying to get ready. ;)
Thanks again,

Btw Always a pleasure to meet another kimchee eater!

I think Steven shot a total of 10 rounds by the time I left. You are a good man, sir. And an example of why this club is pretty awesome.

Btw, thanks for helping me get Ballistic FTE to match my data Randall. I need to pick up one of those Kestrels. I didn't realize the barometric pressure could could swing my dope by THAT much.

Yeah, but 5 of those rounds darn near blew up my rifle.....

Posted: **Wed Jan 26, 2011 6:04 pm**

Would be very interested if the new date in Feb. is still open.
Is there a current calender of class schedules for 2011 posted? (Class A ?) I tried to locate one and to no avail.
If Feb is closed how can I get on the list for the next one?
Thanks for putting up with us newbies
