Shooting Positions in the Field - Long-Range Rifle Shooting Technique

By Bob Owens | 8:54 PM | January 29, 2014

I’m personally fascinated at how the combination of individual body mechanics and learned technique influence shooting positions. Yeah… it’s geeky.

It’s really neat to watch someone like Cleckner show a little of what he knows, so that we can pick up some good points to improve our shooting games in the real world.

Anybody can be a “sniper” from a bench. Shooting in the field separates those who talk a good game from those who actually know what they’re doing.
