(Before It's News)

Links to some of the best tactical information on the web.  If you have some free time, check them out this weekend.

 MOA & MIL

1-440x440

Some precision rifle basics.  The article Mils vs. MOA provides even more information.

Infantry Weapons And Usage In Korea(2)

Some more information compiled in a study that spoke to Korean War soldiers immediately after battlefield engagements.  One of the study’s conclusions has remained unchanged for more than 50 years…we need more shooting practice:

“Rifle practice at the longer ranges is still desirable. But the rifleman needs about five times the amount of practice now given him with live ammunition if the weapon’s potential is to be fully exploited in combat.”

Movement with Purpose

I like Dave Spaulding’s take on shooting while moving.  Purposeful is important.

Shot Placement in Combat Shooting

A couple of shot placement considerations that you may not be aware of.

Max Velocity shares some important information about choosing the best rifle caliber for arming an unconventional rifle squad.  If you would like to learn some more about military and group tactics, I think you’ll like his book Contact! A Tactical Manual for Post Collapse Survival.

Optimizing protein intake

Protein-foods-770x472-300x184

An adequate intake of protein is critical to developing lean body mass.  What most people don’t understand is that there is a possibility of taking in too much protein….and I’m not talking about some kind of mythological “kidney damage.”  Know what you are putting into your body and understand there might be downstream consequences for your actions.

Some great resources for shooters who have elbow pain.  I would also suggest checking out Dr. Kelly Starrett’s MobilityWOD website and Becoming a Supple Leopard Book.  Kelly’s “Voodoo Floss Bands” have worked wonders on some of my tendon issues.
