we have a similar yearly festival like this in switzerland, only its for kids aged 13-17. its called knabenschiessen. we get gov rifles to shoot and a supervisor, so really any kid can join and try their luck. i went every year and it was always fun, almost advanced to the second round once. also its only 5 shots so you really want to be as precise and patient as possible with every shot.

[@kiloalphatango3256]

Modern day technology my friends. Me personally doesn’t matter. I’ll shoot irons or optics. But Optics no doubt have reduced the training curve of teaching recruits/trainees how to shoot accurately.

[@MyLonewolf25]

Yup and you shot a massive fucking target too

[@dstro899]

I agree with you, they should have left optics out altogether. Optics are one of those things where, on average, the more you spend, the better you're advantage, and thats never a good thing for any competition. But it has been a problem with bastic training and AIT for the last several years. In most cases, irons arent even taught anymore. Even the most durable optic can, and does break. Irons can never be replaced. Optics should always be treated as exactly what that they are: luxuries.

[@unleasheth]

Looks awesome id love to try it. Question though, why are the rifle stocks positioned soooo unrealistically high up on the shoulder for while standing? Without researching my question any, to me I am guessing its something along the lines of making length of pull equal /fair? If you need the stock riding that high just to get a dead on look down the scope then why not run a high position cantilever mount for the scopes to get the stock back down where it belongs at, securely pushing all of the pad into the shoulder. Dont get me wrong i hate goofy high rise scopes if its aesthetics theyre going for lol, but something tells me thats not the reason why they do it

[@ernestsorrell9811]

In the standing position, its the most stable way to shoot. Your resting ur left elbow on your body to create skeletal support rather than muscular support. You will notice that while shooting in the standing position, they are standing straight up, some even slightly leaned back. This is so that the upper arm can rest on/be locked against the torso. Since the rifles are service rifles, they are designed for combat shooting. Combat shooting stances are much different and in combat stances you would see the stocks of the rifles being mostly covered by the shoulder. But in this accuracy based skeletal supported standing position, the rifle stocks sit very high on the should just due to the rifles being held in an unnatural way, or at least a way that they were not specifically designed to be held. Hope this helps.

[@unleasheth]

@@ernestsorrell9811 I see, yes.

[@dontask8979]

No reason to to worry about recoil as there are no quick follow up shots.

[@unleasheth]

@@dontask8979 Agreed, theres no recoil but I believe what he means is this is the stance they take whilst standing, to get the most accuracy as possible, since theres no leaning into anything for support or proping up on something for stability. Its pretty hard to make far off precise shots (atleast competitively how they are) just free standing and aiming. Now I see why they use this stance, makes more since to me because youre actually propping up on your own body this way for more steady accuracy

[@goodoleme747]

Classic offhand position for accuracy. Biathlon athletes use the same method.

Google has all you would like to know but The optics can have a maximum magnification of 4.5x. There are some restrictions on the physical size of the scopes used, but most normal 4x scopes made for AR rifles will work. The objective lens cannot be larger than 34mm. The rest is easy to find though

The rules allowing optics up to 4.5 changed in 2016. The reasoning being that the military had switched to issuing optical sights. One still needs a spotting scope for wind and mirage as well as scoring. The Army determined that it would be better to train new shooters with irons first and then transition to optics.
