Classes are on deck at the new Steyr Arms Training Academy with the gun school announcing the first series of dates for its 2018 schedule.
The first two courses developed by the academy are the Steyr Precision rifle, SPR-I, and the Steyr Precision Armorer, SPA, classes. These will be held March 9 through March 11 and again March 30 through April 1. More classes are slated to hit the itinerary in May, though no definitive dates have been released.
SPR-I aims to impart on students a theoretical understanding of ballistic skills needed to reach each Steyr rifle’s accuracy potential in addition to shooting practice. The course covers the fundamentals of marksmanship, developing paper and electronic tables and grasping how various factors impact shooting performance. Students without access to a Steyr rifle will have the opportunity to rent a Steyr Pro THB, with other rifle models available on request.
Focusing on the assembling and maintenance of a precision rifle, the SPA course sets its sights on students who want to learn how to complete repairs and keep rifles running at a competition or sniper performance level. Topics covered
