About the event

Magnified Optic Employment Course [MOEC] - I bridges the gap between precision rifles and standard carbines.  This 2 day course is designed and built around rifles equipped with magnified optics such as LPVO's, magnifiers or ACOG's.  We will begin the day with individually setting up each shooter’s weapon system to ensure that the eye relief is correct and that the scope is leveled and torqued.  The only time students will be shooting from the prone is when they‘re zeroing weapons and obtaining muzzle velocity.  Everything else will be done from a supported or unsupported position; some with elevated heart rates. Students will leave MOEC having a better understanding of how to effectively maximize the use of their scoped weapon system.

THIS IS NOT A BASIC SHOOTING COURSE.

This course requires students to be confident with their weapon handling skills and physical fitness. We will be moving and shooting from different types of cover and concealment such as barricades and vehicles. We will also be moving through uneven terrain and shoot from unconventional shooting positions.

-Rifle set up
