Youth 270 Rifle Class

As Jeff Cooper has opined in his writings, the 270 rifle class should be mandatory for all young boys and girls prior to achieving adulthood. Youth ages 12-16 can attend this course (no exceptions to the age range). They must be able to hold a rifle up for extended periods of time and be capable of getting into the various shooting positions numerous times throughout the day.

This class covers all the elements of the adult 270, except they’ll be attending with other like minded youngsters. If your youngster is getting into hunting or has a few seasons under their belt, this class will greatly boost their confidence and marksmanship in the field.

In this class any hunting type rifle from .223 to .308 would be appropriate. Ammo packages will only be available in .223 and .308.

Serviceable Rifle in calibers such as .243, .308, .30-30. (No Magnum calibers)

I took Rifle 270 years ago. I did not do particularly well, but I discovered what I needed to change on my rifle and scope, as well as what I needed to practice. After that I had very successful hunts in Africa, Canada, Alaska and Mexico.
