This sounds like it would be fun to watch. Imagine clearing Thunderville with a Sharps. 
Old Rifle Course ORC
3 DAYS
Nominal 400-450 ROUNDS OF AMMUNITION
$900
The Old Rifle Course is formatted to address all rifles from single shot era i.e. Sharps to the modern era circa 1959 to include the M14/M1A platforms. This is a marksmanship course but as well a forum for student to learn and nurture defensive skills with rifles types that may seem to be archaic to the unknowing.
Paper and steel targets will be engaged from muzzle to 700 plus yards or bluntly as far as the student can continue to get repeat hits on the targets presented. Primary ranges are 0-300 yards or ranges that are considered to be danger close. Additional drills will address movement and use of cover and concealment and tactical issues appropriate to the rifle being used i.e. Black Powder rifle fire leaves a significant muzzle signature, loading the M1 Garand en bloc clip in prone as subtle examples. Modest over watch movement up and down, prone, kneeling some lateral and back and forth movement. It is not a run & gun be on fire course.
Notices:
It is important TO KNOW AND CONFIRM your ammunition type NO armor piercing /steel core or tracer ammunition is allowed in this course it is dangerous and that is good and its supposed to be, but not in this format, it will create fires and ruin armored targets. Ball ammunition as an example .30-06 for a 1903A3 Springfield / M1 Garand are acceptable and lead bullets for Sharps rifles are all good.
Rifle examples, not limited to these rifles:
M1 Garand
M1 Carbine
1903/1903A3 Springfield
Enfield
Sharps/Rolling Blocks Remington
M14/M1A
Lever Action Rifles Winchester 1873/1892/1886/1894
Eye ear protection at knee elbow protection light mat for prone firing.
Load bearing gear for ammo and extra ammunition systems magazine i.e. if required.
Looks like they have new Advanced 1911 and long-range AR-15 offerings also.
