PRECISION RIFLE DEVELOPMENT
2 day course
Brooks Battlegroup’s Precision Rifle Development course is a two-day program built to develop the skills and understanding required for accurate, repeatable precision rifle engagements. Instruction is led by a former USMC Scout Sniper with operational experience, bringing real-world context to both technique and decision-making.
Students will learn bullet design and ballistic performance, including updated insights around G7 ballistic coefficients and projectile efficiency. Instruction covers internal, external, and terminal ballistics, with a focus on how each affects real-world shot outcomes. You’ll learn to produce an accurate cold-bore shot, then build a repeatable process for follow-on engagements.
What Sets Us Apart
A major emphasis is placed on building a reliable rifle system: students will learn how to meticulously zero a precision rifle using a magnified variable power optic, develop and manage data from previous engagements (DOPE), and apply corrections through both holdovers and dialing elevation and windage.
Wind is treated as a critical skillset—students will learn how to calculate and bracket wind from the shooter’s position to the target and along the entire bullet path. The course also addresses range estimation in the event of equipment failure, using practical formulas for MOA and MRAD optics.
Throughout the course, shooters will refine the fundamentals of a stable shooting position, including key touch points that help maintain position under recoil and support accurate follow-on shots.
RANGE ESTIMATION FORMULA
Range estimation is crucial in precision rifle shooting because small distance errors cause large elevation mistakes at longer ranges, and it provides a reliable fallback when a rangefinder can’t get an accurate reading.
FUNDAMENTALS OF PROPER SHOOTING POSITION AND RECALL MANAGEMENT
Proper shooting position and recoil management are essential in precision rifle shooting because they keep the rifle stable and return it consistently to the natural point of aim, enabling accurate shots and clear follow-through for spotting impacts and making fast corrections.
WIND CALLS AND FORMULAS
Wind calls and a wind formula are critical in precision rifle shooting because wind is often the largest variable affecting bullet drift, and a reliable method lets you quickly estimate and correct for it to make first-round hits.
Internal external terminal, ballistics and proper zeroing
Understanding internal, external, and terminal ballistics and establishing a proper zero is essential for precision rifle shooting because it ensures the bullet leaves the barrel consistently, flies predictably to the target, and impacts where you intend with the desired effect.
