Shooting positions and stabilization gear

I am planning on using a pellet gun to get some additional rifle training but I want to practice practical shooting situations. Does anyone know of a good video for proper technique and gear for shooting in the kneeling/sitting position. I know those dont perform as well but I haven’t found a great one walking through positioning.

I don’t know if a good video, but if a tripod is in the budget, it’s the ultimate cheat code for hunting position accuracy in a kneeling, sitting, or standing position.

I helped a guy this week hunting who had a few near misses and then off a tripod he made a phenomenal shot at 360 yards.

I like Ryan Cleckner’s stuff. He has a book on shooting you can get on Amazon too. These are all good videos…

Sling usage seems relevant to stable shooting positions. Learning to properly use a sling is another life goal of mine. lol. This riveting one will keep you on the edge of your seat. I bet the way a hunter in the field would benefit from the sling is similar to the early to mid 20th century infantryman. It seems that the modern tactical usage of a sling has evolved away from that old style mostly. I don’t know though. I was never military or LE. This is interesting stuff though…

I suggest you find an Appleseed event near you. https://appleseedinfo.org

First step is the 25yd shooting. They are all about shooting standing, kneeling, sitting and prone using a sling and .22lr. Great training for any shooter and especially for new ones.

I know Jim has :poop: on them, but the Spartan lineup is very useful. I really like the springbok lineup for field positions from standing to prone.

This is my son shooting on the hoplite a few weeks ago. James Nash of the 6 ranch podcast is the mustached man calling the shot. His channel is another great resource.
