3)A class would provide me with some of the things that I figure are critical to doing any long range shooting: access to an adequate range, structured and goal-oriented practice to save on gas and ammo and barrel life, and a concise timeframe I can schedule into a vacation. I may never shoot at long ranges again. That's another possibility, and if it happens to be the case, I'd like to not make major life changes to accommodate a pastime that I might not stick with.
