Who offers carbine classes with engagement ranges 200-300 yards as a course average?
25 yard mag dumps are fun but...it's a RIFLE....after all.... Making hits on man sized targets at those distances should be fairly easy with quality gear but almost nobody teaches that sort of course. The only ones I'm aware of are Gunsite and Valor Ridge....Thunder Ranch has a course with a longer range component to it- out to 700 yards. |

The 223 Gunsite class I took was not an example of 250-300 yds. as a course average.
Out of five days there were three drills which went out to 250 and 300, about 30 minutes each. Of course that's only indicative of the particular class I took, things may have changed. |

It just seems silly to think of shooting 100 yards as "long range"...especially with the weapons and ammo etc....we have today. Jesus, what a guy like Timothy Murphy could have done with a rack grade AR15 and a 1-4x optic.... |

I saw Frank Proctor has an intermediate distance carbine class coming up in January. Eastaboga, AL. Ranges will be from 50-450 yards with varying terrain.

This course will extend the distance of your AR platform out to 700 yards with primary focus inside of Danger Close distance (0-300). |

Insights IDR
Everything from 5 yards to 600 yards. There are military style butts at the range, so you do movers too. Your buddy runs with the target. So much awesomeness.

I just like the emoji. Seemed appropriate when writing about running with a target in the rifle butts. No criticism expressed or implied.
Greg is badass, no doubt. I think there is one more slot available for IDR... |
