I'm not sure if this is the proper place to post this, and if it isn't, let me know. I'll ask a Mod to move the thread.
I'm looking for some recommendations on long range precision classes in the western US (California Washington Oregon Alaska Idaho Utah Nevada or Arizona).
I have (or perhaps had) a good understanding on basic marksmanship. I was in a junior smallbore rifle program from 13 to 18 years of age. Mostly 25 meter stuff (offhand, kneeling, prone), and some 200 yard shooting with rimfires (mini-Palma, English prone, & 1600's). I do not know anything about reading wind. The coach would spot/call wind, and I would adjust and shoot.
I have limited time using a rifle scope, reading the wind, or using rests (bipods, saddles, etc). I have no experience estimating range, calculating range (via reticle ranging systems), or shooting at inclines/declines.
Any recommended schools or classes?
Something else to add: If possible, I'd like to use my Seigal AmeriCorp education award (link: Segal AmeriCorps Education Award | Corporation for National and Community Service). I've worked 2 seasons with AmeriCorp Conservation programs and would like to use the money before it expires. If there's a school who can or would set up a program I'd very much like to attend that school.
