Precision Hunter Development, a collaboration between Modern Day Sniper and SCOUTE Arms

We’re happy to introduce a collaborative effort between Modern Day Sniper and SCOUTE Arms to present two Precision Hunter Development classes this coming summer.  

Taught by Modern Day Sniper cadre with the assistance of SCOUTE Arms, we’ll be offering intermediate and advanced level packages at an amazing venue in the vicinity of Wilsal Montana. Designed to be a total experience, the tuition for both of these classes covers food and drinks for the duration of your stay.

These classes are intended to enhance your current skills by exposing you to modernized marksmanship techniques to help you maximize the potential of your current rifle system. Our goal is to show you your capabilities, but most importantly where your limitations truly are so that you can make more responsible decisions next time you are afield.

On top of the rifle instruction provided, SCOUTE Arms will be bringing out guest instructors who specialize in handgun marksmanship and manipulation for those of us who hunt in bear country. MDS will be teaching the following classes, more information is provided by SCOUTE Arms below. 

• Intermediate Level - July 14-16 - For those who have some experience behind their rifles, but are looking to unlock more potential from themselves, and their shooting systems. This class is a great reset, and serves as an excellent foundation to continue to build on.

• Advanced Level - August 19-20 - This class is for those who’ve had some formal training experience in the past and are looking to be challenged by exposure to more complex field-shooting scenarios under tighter time and accuracy standards. You’re going to learn how to manage both your mind, and your equipment.
