This guide, drawing on insights from Todd Hodnett, a leading expert in long-range precision shooting, covers the critical aspects of selecting and mounting rifle optics. It details how scope choice varies by application, from 3-gun to extreme long-range, and highlights specific models like the Nightforce ATACR, Bushnell ERS, and Leupold scopes. The importance of a quality scope mount, such as the LaRue Tactical LT111, is emphasized for maintaining zero, and different reticle types are explained with their limitations.

This video focuses on the foundational principles of positional shooting in precision rifle marksmanship. Hosted by Todd Hodnett, President of Accuracy 1st, a highly respected instructor in the field, the content aims to impart advanced training and techniques for military and long-range shooters. The emphasis is on mastering stable shooting positions for improved accuracy.

This guide details Todd Hodnett's 'Alternate Range Zero' technique, a practical method for zeroing precision rifles when a standard 100-meter range is inaccessible. It emphasizes using ballistic data from tools like the Kestrel 5700 Elite to achieve a precise zero at alternative distances, followed by turret adjustment. The technique is presented as a field-expedient solution, with a caution against its use at extreme ranges.

This guide, presented by Todd Hodnett of Accuracy 1st, details the benefits of faster barrel twist rates for long-range precision shooting. It explains how modern bullet designs can handle faster twists, improving gyroscopic stability and mitigating issues caused by transonic shockwaves. The expert instruction emphasizes that selecting a faster twist rate when rebarreling or buying a new rifle can significantly enhance accuracy and reduce bullet drop at extended distances.

This guide details advanced techniques for using a rear bag in precision rifle shooting, as demonstrated by Todd Hodnett. It covers how to manipulate the bag for fine aiming adjustments, use it on barriers, and incorporate it into positional shooting for enhanced stability and reduced shooter fatigue. The instruction emphasizes minimizing muscle tension for improved accuracy.
