I have been invited at the last minute to fill in for a competitor to shoot the Mammoth Sniper Challenge, the granddaddy of all PRS matches. The only problem: I'm a neophyte PRS shooter. I'm a well rounded carbine shooter and very fit (took 1st place overall in my most recent Run N Gun match, running ~4 miles with a 52 lbs gear loadout and shooting 5 multigun stages along the way), but have very limited experience shooting long range.
I am seeking a day of training in long range shooting (out to 500-600 yards) to help me prep for MCS. I need to learn things like reading wind, milling with a reticle, positional shooting, etc... all the basic PRS skills. I will be the team's secondary shooter and will have an 18" precision AR in 5.56. My partner will be carrying and operating the 6.5CM bolt rig. I am willing to drive up to 3 hours from Rockville to make this happen.
I am looking to commit to any day between Jan 3 and Jan 9. I'll bring the hot chocolate. Please recommend some local-ish instructors (or yourself, if this is in your wheel house).
Ideally, I would like to find a fellow shooting enthusiast with PRS experience and barter some different training in which I am an SME. Personal fitness, rock climbing/rappelling/ice climbing, or emergency medical response (trauma response, CPR, first aid, etc). My credentials are available and very thorough. I could take you out for a day of climbing and rappelling instruction, or teach a tactical medical/trauma course, or spend a day working out together and then help you formulate a fitness plan going forward. These are just some spitball ideas, happy to come up with something mutually beneficial.
As a last resort, I can also pay a professional trainer, but my budget for the month was already set, then this fell in my lap, and funds are now stretched a bit thin.
