Bill Rogers, a legend in the shooting community, created the venerable Rogers Range along with his cutting edge reactive shooting school decades ago. This incredible training, once reserved for tip of the spear special operations forces is now available to law enforcement and responsible armed citizens alike.
We are honored to have earned the privilege to be a part of the instructor cadre at Rogers Range Texas, which is but one of the many ranges within the 2300 acre Mission Critical training ranch in Gatesville TX (near Fort Hood in Killeen).
The Legacy training course is four days, beginning on a Thursday morning. This program mirrors the original Bill Rogers curriculum. Course fee: $1075
Based upon the Legacy course, our Chronos two day weekend course is comprised of our process oriented shooting school curriculum. Every aspect of the fundamental skill-set required to successfully perform on the Rogers range is broken down into minute detail, including: shooting positions, drawing from the holster, durable single and two hand grip methodology, single and two hand reloads, correlation of sights/dot and vision, sight confirmation, trigger control, reactive (0.50 sec splits) and predictive (0.25 sec splits) shooting, rapid target transition techniques, etc. This building block and skills stacking method of instruction is presented in a crawl, walk, run format, affording students the opportunity for exponential growth within a compressed timeline. Students who attend Chronos typically go on to CRUSH the Legacy course. Course fee: $550
The Mission Critical training ranch is west of Fort Hood / Killeen TX. It is a privately owned and operated facility which is not open to the public. There are no day shooters, range passes or range members. The address will remain undisclosed until payment for your course is received. Directions to the ranch and the gate access code will be provided prior to your arrival.
The course begins each day at 9:00 a.m. We will take a quick lunch break on the range around noon. Training wraps up between 3:00 and 4:00 daily.
