Note From JWR:

We are pleased to welcome our latest advertiser, Holland’s of Oregon. I have known and done business with Darryl Holland for more than 15 years. As I’ve previously mentioned in SurvivalBlog, we have Holland muzzle brakes on five of our rifles here at the Rawles Ranch. We also have Holland brand nylon cheek rest stock pouches on seven of our rifles. Not only does Darryl make some of the best custom precision rifles and rifle muzzle brakes on the market, but he also teaches perhaps the best long range shooting school in the country. Whether you are a big game hunter, a police SWAT team member, a military designated marksman, or a survivalist in my opinion there is no better long range rifle training available. By taking a course at Holland’s you can become the rifle shot that you’ve always wanted to be. The goal of Darryl’s intensive four day courses is to train shooters to be able to confidently, competently, and consistently engage targets with a scoped rifle out to 800 yards, even in windy weather. Darryl and his staff of of skilled instructors teach the use of Mil-radian and MOA correction. Students shoot to ranges of up to 875 yards. Topics covered include: camouflage and concealment, stalking techniques, equipment selection, ballistics, range estimation and corrections, wind speed/direction estimation and corrections, angle (uphill/downhill) estimation and corrections, rifle and optics maintenance, as well as marksmanship principles and their application. Course enrollment is strictly limited. Call (541) 439-5155 to reserve a slot in an upcoming course. The next course runs from September 1st through 4th, in Powers, Oregon. Even if you don’t have the opportunity to attend one of the Holland shooting schools, please visit their web site and check out their products, gunsmithing services, and educational DVDs. (For example, in my opinion Darryl’s DVD on long range shooting techniques is an absolute “must have.”)
