TresMon’s LONG Range Shooting Class/Seminar!

Whether you are a 100-yard deer hunter wanting to shoot @ 500 yards with the gear you already have, or a 600/1000-yard competitor that would like to try a 1-mile shot, or a LEO/Military sniper that would like to give more breadth and depth to your knowledge base, or someone anywhere in between, this class will give you the knowledge to proceed with those desires.

“Local" (Middle & East Tennessee) cost is $115 per person pre-registered, $125 at the door. Out of state (States bordering TN) cost is $125 pre-registered, $140 at the door. Places more distant than noted in the preceeding is a flat $140 per student plus all actual instructor expenses.

This is not a live-fire course, this is classroom presentation & training so you can go back to your shooting spot and put to use the skills you learned in class. There are many FINE live-fire Long Range shooting schools in this country.

Cost is typically $600 for the course, plus $300 for ammo plus travel & lodging= $1200.00 +/-

My course is for the working man who can not afford that (such as myself) but desires the same education & training at a price he can afford.
