Thread: Technique Tips - Newbie

Hi TimK,

I'm a fellow new guy and in my search I found a couple of podcasts that you might find useful (I certainly did).
The guys interview former special operations sniper, Ryan Cleckner. He's been a long time trainer of snipers, and speaks plainly with some good advice. They cover a lot of topics including developing good shooting technique; rifle setup; ballistics and lots of other good stuff. I keep listening to these interviews and getting stuff out of it each time.

One thing Ryan repeatedly talks about is the importance of dry firing. From his advice and people on this thread I think it'd be worth investing in some snap caps so you don't do any damage to the gun from dry firing.
