ABC's of marksmanship?
12/21/2008 12:25:38 AM
When I was in bootcamp we were taught a whole lot of rifle shooting ditties. Stuff like:
BRASS
Breath
Relax
Aim
Stop
Squeeze
Now there was something called the ABC's of marksmanship. But for the life of me, I can not remember what they are. I think B was Bone Support but I am not sure.
Can anyone help me out here?

Six steps to firing a shot:
1. Sight alighnment
2. Sight picture
3. Respitory pause
4a. Focus your eye on the front sight
4b. Focus your mind on keeping the sights on target
5. Trigger squeeze/press
6. Follow through (hold the trigger to the rear, call your shot)
(some steps are simplified with optics instead of irons)
7th step is to pass it along after you master it.
All this and how to build a steady possition ect can be learned in a weekend at an Appleseed.
Happy shooting, hope this helps
Edited for a small but important correction

Is this supposed to be "respiratory"?
