Training days are great. I will be attending next weekend with 2-3 different rifles and my PCC. They will have all the various PRS props setup so you can practice without the pressure of the stopwatch. Depending on the number of people, you can spend up to 5 mins at each barricade to see what works best for each prop. You will have targets from 50-500 yards. They also recently added the pistol bay so you can shoot practice stages with your pistol or PCC.

You should be ready with a drop chart out to 500 yards, but it's a good way to confirm or true up your dope. They don't want people shooting over the top of the berm at 500 if you have no idea what elevation you need.
If you don't have any estimates for that range there are usually plenty of people there to help you calculate your elevations or holds. You can confirm at the shorter distances and work out to the 500. I will have my magnetospeed if you need to get some velocity data.
I'm an fclass shooter and know my dope for that gun but was load testing today for mine and my dad's 6.5CM, and not exactly sure how fast they are going. I'd error on the side of coming up short before going over there berm without a doubt.
We've shot at Eds class out to 1200 and guessing 2710fps, 41.9gr H4350 , 140gr eld.
Id love to get some chrono data on this load if you wouldn't mind helping, that would be awesome!
I think my father and I will give the practice day a shot. Assuming i can start prone first, positional shooting isn't easy lol.
Thanks for the input, sorry for all the questions, we are certainly newbs at this
