Overview
The last day of our Long-Range Pipeline at Vortex Edge® completes one of the most all-encompassing long-range shooting experiences available anywhere. Now that you've established a strong foundation in the gathering and application of information to achieve accurate hits at distance, it's time to go a step further and incorporate those basics into more advanced movements, positions, and via different methods with your equipment. These topics are even more directly related to the challenging situations, types of targets, and environments you may encounter in whatever real-world scenarios you may find yourself using a precision long-range rifle. Simply put, your understanding of long-range shooting and its many complexities after Long-Range 3 will be at a level which few shooters elsewhere will ever get to experience.

Outstanding Training!
I learned more about shooting in my three days of Long Range 1,2,3 than I had in my 45 years of active shooting. Corey and Justin led the classes and demonstrated that they are both accomplished marksmen and gifted teachers. Every topic was explained in the classroom and immediately followed with range time to make it real for us. Most of the Vortex Edge instructors were involved in some way during the three days and all went out of their way to meet the needs of attendees: setting up the firing line and targets, spotting our shots, helping adjust/fix optics and rifles when needed, etc. The range was perfect and had a gorgeous hunting lodge just steps from the firing line where we did the classroom work and took our meals. Hot meals were great each day, twice catered from local restaurants and on the third day Brennan demonstrated his mastery of both the kitchen and grill. When you leave you WILL be able to hit out to 1000 yards! Expect to be able to make first shot hits out to at least 500 yards on a regular basis. I was stunned by what they were able to teach me!
Long Range 1,2&3 exceeded my expectations. The folks involved from Vortex Edge could not have been nicer, more knowledgeable, or more professional. Driving home I felt less like I had taken three days of training and more like I had spent a long weekend shooting with really helpful friends!
I may take every course Edge offers!

Professional Instruction!
I attended the 2 day Long Range Fundamentals class in 2021 and just completed the Long Range 2 and Longe Range 3 classes in May, 2022. In both cases, instruction was simply superb! For LR2 and LR3, Corey and Justin exceeded all of my expectations. They both have the requisite bona fides to teach the classes including significant real world practical application of what they teach. The other significant skill they have is the ability to teach in a manner that is friendly and tailored to your needs. They will answer absolutely every relevant question you ask and will take as much time as needed to ensure you’ve hard a positive learning experience.
In the 2021 LR Fundamentals class, we recommended positional shooting and here it is for the 2022 class. The Vortex Edge team values student feedback and provided outstanding support to ensure the class ran smoothly. Cody answered all of my pre-class instructions and pretty much the entire Vortex Edge team was on-site to assist in any way they could, to include making hot and tasty noon meals!
I am coming back I. 2023 to retake the entire long range curriculum because you will always learn something new, receive great coaching tips and of course, you have access to a 1,000 yard range.
A friend of the Vortex family graciously provided the use of their land to use as the range, including their wonderful guest house. It was fantastic!
My compliments again to the Vortex Edge Team!!
