Experience Overview

The L302 Extreme Long Range course is a new course for 2022. This is a two day course and differs from our other course offerings in that it is not intended as a hunting course. At LRU we have a laser focus on equipment and techniques which are functional and applicable in the real world of mountain hunting. We make one exception and this is our Level 302 ELR (Extreme Long Range) course. This course is all about pushing the limits on extreme long range target engagements. The main focus of the L302 Extreme Long Range curriculum is to teach our clients the advanced ballistic knowledge to engage targets to 2000 yards and beyond. In this course you are expected to bring your own rifle. It is specifically designed to support the Gunwerks HAMR, however any Magnus or Verdict with a suitable optic is capable of hits at 2000 yards and beyond. This class requires a basic threshold of ballistics knowledge beyond what could be taught in the time allotted, so we require the student to have completed Level 101 and Level 201 within the last 5 years.

LRU Training Tracks Overview

Long Range University
Our course curriculum is always evolving! Over the past couple of years, we have developed a new organization of training content, facilitating a more focused and progressive learning experience. Now our courses are organized into two parallel tracks, Ballistic Science and Marksmanship Skills, culminating in our Advanced training courses.

 
Ballistic Science

The core Long Range University curriculum is contained in our Ballistic Science track. We place a heavy emphasis on the science of long-range shooting. Generally, you will spend time in the classroom introducing concepts, followed by range demonstration and exercise to solidify complex topics.

Marksmanship Skills

The second track is our Marksmanship Skills track where we place a heavy focus on developing shooting skills. Light on the classroom, these courses spend most of the time teaching practical applications on the range.

Advanced Training

When you are ready to test your skills, we offer several advanced courses to challenge you and your equipment in calculated conditions to refine your experience and capabilities.  From mountain shooting venues to pronghorn hunting in New Mexico to a precision rifle competition, we can offer you the opportunity to achieve the next level.

Sheep Mountain Range

Cody, Wyoming
Our Sheep Mountain Training facility is located approximately 30 minutes West of Cody in the Absaroka Mountains. Nestled in the heart of the Absaroka Mountains the rugged terrain offers breathtaking views of Buffalo Bill Reservoir and combined with the unpredictable weather patterns in the area, make for a realistic and challenging training environment. This location offers significant mountain wind conditions, steep terrain, practical shooting platforms, and extreme long range target opportunities. We've been training long range hunting for over 15 years and this is one of our favorite field shooting ranges! Sheep Mountain is the ultimate location to prep for your next mountain hunt.

If your course requires access to the upper platforms, we use brand new Jeep Wrangler 4X4 vehicles to transport people and equipment to the ultra-rugged shooting stations. For most of the courses and competitions we hold at this location, we prefer the students to use their equipment as an opportunity to gain confidence while stress testing personal gear. The Jeeps are setup with bed caps and truck vaults to safely store your equipment while traveling.

Some courses will be based solely on the lower deck. Students will be allowed to drive their vehicles to the site.

We hope you enjoy shooting the Sheep Mountain Range as much as we do!

We will take your order for a sandwich from a local deli each morning and bring it to the range with us.

We will meet at our Cody facility located at 201 Blackburn St. at 8:00 AM. Please do not arrive before 7:45. After completing our classroom portion, we will caravan to the range at Sheep Mountain approximately 30 minutes away.

We will need the final payment completed 30 days before the event start date to keep the registration valid. We'll send you and email to remind you!
