Masterpiece Arms is introducing our Bolt Action Academy. This concept is driven by a significant need within this long range shooting community to provide continuing education to all levels of shooters. In addition to the many new entrants to this wonderful shooting sport, the technology is evolving at a rapid rate. This scenario has created a void between the technology and information available to the shooters. MPA’s involvement in the Long Range Shooting community is extensive and our ability to provide this level of education, we feel, is a task that we embrace. We are dedicated long range shooters and feel its our responsibility to share the knowledge. 
The BA Academy includes the following:
Here is more information on these services:
INTRODUCTION TO LONG RANGE –
Is designed for students who are entering the world of long range rifle marksmanship. The intro course will build solid shooting fundamentals and provide data that the shooter will be able to take anywhere and successfully engage targets at distance. Additionally, the intro course is designed so that the shooter will be able to trouble shoot problems with the rifle, scope or ammunition. Focus will be on fundamentals of building a strong shooting position, understanding and utilization of windage and elevation adjustments on your optic, and reading atmospheric conditions such as
mirage and wind. This will be a 2 day course. 
ADVANCED LONG RANGE –
Is designed for students who are looking for advanced long range enhancement to their existing skill set. This class will cover the mechanical setup of your rifle (torque specs, advanced optic usage and understanding), advanced position building, methods to ensure extreme accuracy performance, advanced ballistic considerations, data gathering, creating and using dope cards, advanced usage of ballistic calculators and wind meters (Kestrel), advanced wind reading, moving target strategy, and mind and time stress events. This will be a 2 day class.
COMPETITION PREPAREDNESS –
Is designed for experienced shooters who desire to start competing in long range Precision Rifle Competitions such as the PRS, NRL, Club Series or many of the regional Sniper competitions held throughout the US. Focus on time management, building stable and consistent positions, advanced wind and mirage reading, stage strategy and preparation, equipment usage, as well as ballistic and caliber considerations for an ideal competition setup – all with the objective of improving your performance in positional long range shooting competitions. This will be a 2 day course.
