Level 2 · Foundation graduates or equivalent
What this class is
Advanced picks up where Foundation leaves off. You already have a process from the prone. Now we take it off the mat: tripods, barricades, awkward terrain, and positions you did not choose. We work known and unknown distance from 300 to 1,200 yards and put you in shooter and spotter teams so the wind call is yours.
Full Advanced breakdownWho it's for
Foundation graduates, or shooters with equivalent Level 1 training who can already run a solver, manage recoil, and hold a stable prone position without thinking about it.
What you'll be able to do
- Build stable positions on barricades, tripods, and unfamiliar terrain
- Manage your wobble zone and break clean shots from unconventional positions
- Range unknown-distance targets and build a firing solution you trust
- Make practical wind calls with a repeatable process
- Work as a shooter and spotter team under time
- Carry Foundation mechanics into standing, kneeling, sitting, and supported positions
- Manage recoil well enough to see your own impacts from every position
- Score yourself against the Cadre standards card and know your next step

Your instructor
Recon Marine · Recon Sniper Course instructor
Former Recon Sniper Course instructor, now a firefighter and lifelong hunter who serves as The Cadre's safety officer. He'd rather glass a hillside at dawn than run a stage on the clock, and he teaches the way he hunts: slow down, read your conditions, make the first round count.
