Battle Rifle Series - Day Two
Battle Rifle Series - Day Two
The Battle Rifle Series – Day One is the foundation of what we teach at the Lodestone Training and Consulting. The course provides an introduction to the 8 fundamentals of combat marksmanship, and provides the student with a series of foundation drills to reinforce these fundamentals and ensure the student’s success. These classes are paced to the student’s level of experience, so that no matter what skill level the student arrives with, the entire class succeeds.
Day Two of the Battle Rifle Series class picks up where Day One left off. The Day Two course starts by reinforcing what was learned in Day One, and then moves on to movement and barricades – both vital areas of knowledge in a gunfight. The day consists of dynamic drills incorporating the lessons learned, and will be physically demanding, with movement in all planes, and the use of cover – some drills will start from the ground, as well. Students will engage a variation of paper, cardboard, and steel targets. Distances will be from 5 feet to 1000 yards.
The day consists of 1-2 hours of classroom instruction, followed by live-fire instruction.
There is a 30-60 minute lunch break included, with lunch being provided by LTAC.
