“Tag: long range shooting”

Whittington U, the instructional division of the NRA Whittington Center, offers firearms training for all skill levels.

Following a successful launch in 2015, NRA Outdoors will expand its Long Range School offerings in 2016.

Long-range shooting is a very specific skill-set that takes a lot of hard work and a lot of burned powder to acquire. Start now to be ready for fall.

A riflescope’s reticle is placed in either the first focal plane (FFP) or the second focal plane (SFP). The main difference between them is that an SFP reticle will appear to be the same size regardless of magnification. With an FFP reticle, the size of the reticle will appear to change as the scope’s magnification is changed.

Kimber has announced the addition of four new Pro Carbon Rifles to its Open Range Line.

Seldom encountered today, the 7mm STW was a trendsetter in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Although newer, faster cartridges have debuted since, it’s still a solid choice when pursuing big-game in wide-open areas.

So you want to be a long-range hunter? You have a super-accurate rifle and you have tuned the ammo until it punches little bug holes in the target instead of groups. The trigger is crisp and clean and you have the best optics money can buy on top of the gun.

Not everyone who attends an NRA Outdoors event will kill a trophy sheep—but they’ll be given an opportunity to make the most of world-class training and facilities just the same as the folks who will. It’s hard to argue with that.
