Just a heads up to any who may be interested, a friend of mine is hosting Matt Burkett at a range outside Winchester, VA on May 7 & 8 (Friday/Saturday).
Cost is $400 for both days.
I realize its short notice but he had a few last minute drop outs, I believe there are 5 slots still available.
The round count will be high. Matt prides himself on that I venture…
Maybe 6-700 pistol a day and 3-400 carbine a day. Also, I think I have him bringing his shotgun so bring some slugs and shot too.
When you sign up I have a full info packet for you.
This is not a novice class so be aware. It will be focused of movement and range/structure/COF negotiation led by the bread and butter of competitor and tactician alike, Gun out_rounds on…NOW.
So far the roster has a great group and good mix. This can be a chance to make contacts too with those who are more than plinkers in our AO.
Is this a DT, Knife fighting, Archery, rifle, pistol, and/or shotgun course?[/QUOTE]

From previous posts:
“From what I was told it’ll be about 70% pistol and 30% carbine.
Goal is to make good shooters in to great shooters, not a class for novices.”

Range Intel (Indoors, outdoors, both?)
Not sure why it matters but it will be outdoors

It’s a shooting course focusing on Pistol & Carbine with the possibility of some shotgun work if students wish to bring theirs.
If you’re not interested, don’t know or care who Matt Burkett is, don’t have the time and/or money, or otherwise unhappy with the organization of the class announcement… then please disregard.
I’ll try to post some pics and an AAR after the class.
Matt Burke does seem to know what he’s talking about looking at the list of compeitions he’s won.
Just got a couple of questions. Can you please clear up range/structure/COF negotiation? Is he going to teach us how to shoot different courses of fire or is this more how to engage targets from barricades type of thing? Maybe I’m reading into it too much.
Would this class be for someone who doesn’t shoot compeition like myself? I definitely would take this class into consideration especially if we aren’t going to do any fundamentals training. If this class is a straight safety brief, then going into shooting on the move, shooting from barricades, shooting COFs, etc, you can count me in!
Thanks again for your time

p.s. I was just wondering if it’s indoors or outdoors so I know the proper clothing to wear incase of precipitation
Bump it to the top for what sounds to be a great class. If i didn’t have prior commitments i would be there. If the legendary tree hopper and princess are giving it thumbs up, its going to be a blast. You boys and girls have fun.
