Revere’s Riders is excited to announce our inaugural event at Hoosier Hills Rifle and Pistol Club!Overview: Attendees will experience shooting in multiple firing positions at varying distances and will learn modern defensive shooting skills on the AR platform. All firing in this course will be within 200 yards with a focus on the close quarters environment from contact to 50 yards. You will get a workout with all the skills needed to run the carbine from up close to 200 yards. We may work out to the battlesight zero of your carbine (200-300 yards) but the focus is on short range marksmanship.
Prerequisites: Suggested—Rifle 125 or similar class.
Estimated Ammunition Required: 250 rounds/day
Rifle Requirements: This course is conducted as an NRA America’s Rifle Challenge clinic and, as such, the AR-15 is an ideal rifle to bring. Any safe semi-automatic carbine can be used (Mini-14, AK-47, Tavor, etc.).
Required Equipment: Please review our suggestions on appropriate Rifle 223 equipment and plan to bring the following:
at least two (2) magazines for your carbine (more is better)
sling for your rifle (a 2-point adjustable sling is recommended although a 1-point sling will work fine if that is your preference; the US GI sling is probably not ideal for this event)
a way to take notes
hearing protection
eye protection
plenty of your preferred method of hydration (both plain water and something to replace electrolytes you will lose via sweating is ideal)
lunch (we won’t be leaving the range)
snacks
Optional Equipment: The following equipment is not required but may come in handy at the event:
case for your rifle
hat with a brim (to deflect flying hot brass)
knee/elbow pads (we may shoot from kneeling and other positions)
folding chair
sunscreen and/or bug spray

This class is moderately physically demanding. We will be on our feet much of the day, moving between various positions on the range. We will be shooting from different positions throughout the day.
Please contact the event director if you intend to bring a different type of firearm other than an AR-15 or similar carbine; we can probably accommodate learning on your preferred platform but want to ensure you will not be frustrated.
