This video explains the critical concept of 'height over bore' (HOB) and its impact on point of aim versus point of impact, especially at close ranges. The instructor demonstrates how HOB, combined with a rifle's zero distance, creates a mechanical offset that causes shots to impact lower than the reticle at distances closer than the zero. Understanding and compensating for this offset through holdovers is presented as essential for accurate shooting under pressure.

This guide details the proper procedure for zeroing a rifle for combat engagements. It emphasizes correct optic mounting, grouping to confirm fundamentals, understanding bullet drop compensators, and choosing between a 25-meter or 50-meter zero based on expected engagement distances.

This guide breaks down the critical aspects of trigger manipulation for firearms. It emphasizes understanding the full trigger cycle, including slack, wall, creep, break, and reset, and advocates for proper finger placement on the bone for optimal feedback. The instructor stresses the importance of 'pressing' the trigger in a straight line, avoiding 'squeezing' or 'pulling,' which can induce unwanted movement and negatively impact accuracy. Proper technique is crucial for consistent shot placement and overall shooting proficiency.
