[QUOTE="Salmonchaser, post: 1584524, member: 107697"] Way way back (91) I attended an advanced sniper course at Quantico. We were required to have a rifle capable of 1 MOA, Mil Dot reticle, a 1917 sling, bi pods were allowed. Lazer range finders had not been invented yet, or were still a military secret. Lead instructor was a buddy/peer of Carlos Hathcock Anyway he spent quite a bit of time on the subject, not nearly as entertaining as that young lady. I remember that once we sorta had it figured out he had us mess with our check weld to see what happens. Next day was natural point of aim. His theory, if natural point of aim is messed up you start forcing the rifle with your face. Learned an awful lot in those two weeks. I was convinced cheek weld matters. [/QUOTE]
