It’s a fair statement to make that the world of precision long range shooting is quite opinionated. I’m not sure you’re going to get much argument from that, however, I’ll up the ante on it and say that the world of precision handloading IS the most opinionated subject out there in the world of precision shooting! 

‍

I can’t imagine you’re going to get much argument from that either…

‍

Most of the time shooters get into precision reloading by cruising forums, Facebook groups, or sifting through the myriad of YouTube videos. You can learn that way - and most guys think that they’ll learn on the cheap this way. But are you really learning “on the cheap” when it comes to chasing your tail with loads, component expenditure, and not knowing where to go when something doesn’t work out?

‍

No, you’re not. Not at all. 

‍

We do have a digital Masterclass on the subject, and there’s a couple reputable sources that offer the same thing, but sometimes people just want to learn hands-on, and in-person. 

‍

Enter the Guided Handloading Experience at Nail Spring Ranch. We’re going to take a deep dive into the process of producing accurate, consistent, and reliable handloads for your rifle, and every other rifle after completion of this program. You’ll bring your rifle, your pre-selected components, and we’re going to personally guide you through establishing your own custom handloads.

‍

The first two days of class you’ll be working on your loads, getting things tuned up and dialed in. Once we settle in on the final recipe, we’re going to spend two days on the ranch stretching the legs and proving it out at distance and on the ranch’s impressive array of precision shooting scenarios. 

‍

Don’t know where to get started in the process with components? No problem - included in this class are pre-planned online guided sessions to get you dialed well ahead of time with the best components for the cartridge you’re looking to load for.

‍

Don’t have the right reloading tools? No problem again - we’re working with industry partners to develop the Handloader’s dream kit so all you’ve gotta do is show up and jump in! If you’re interested in learning more about that - hit us up at info@moderndaysniper.com while we finish fleshing this out.

‍

Have your own tools and you wanna learn how to use them? No problem there either - bring your setup and we’ll get it up on a bench for you so you can learn the in’s and out’s on the gear you’re going to be using at home.

‍

What You’ll Learn:

‍

• Internal Ballistics and the factors contributing to load development
• Chamber drawings and reamer prints
• Measurement tools - how to use them and what needs measuring
• Component Selection - Case, Primer, Propellant, and Bullets
• Tool setup
• Case Preparation
• The Loading Process
• Establishing Charge Weight
• Establishing Bullet Seating Depth
• Evaluation of Results
• Proofing your load at long range
• Troubleshooting Steps

‍

We’re going to do all of this at the best place possible - The Nail Spring Ranch

‍

The ranch is built for exactly this. Brand-new 4-star guest lodge, home-cooked whole-food meals (breakfast and dinner), ridiculous brown-bag lunches you’ll actually look forward to, open bar in the evenings, full gym, classroom with AV, secure armory, and 2,200 ft of grass runway if you’re the type who flies yourself to sniper school.

The ranch is on another level:

• Walk less than 50’ from the loading room to the 100 yard range to test your recipe
• Known-distance bays out to 800 yd and unknown-distance ranges to 1,600 yd from two-story shooting houses with power and AV
• Multiple PRS-style prop stages loaded with creative, evil but fair, barricades
• Hike-and-shoot field courses that feel like high-country elk hunts
• Angle fire and cross-canyon shots from 300 yds out to a mile.
• Wind? It’s always there, and it lies.

Every hit you make at Nail Spring is a hit you earned.

I’m sure you’re going to have some questions about the details, so don’t hesitate to ask us at info@moderndaysniper.com

Get started on the right foot with the right components, in the right environment. This is going to be the best option for you on your handloading journey.
