When I was involved with biathlon our team's coach instructed us to tape a page to a wall upon which was a small dot. We then would dryfire our .22's while aiming at the target dot from across the room. This would allow us to practice our shooting stances, trigger and breathing control. Using this method helped us get ready for competitions without having the luxury of a range immediately nearby.
That was a long time ago. I recently found a set of drills for skiing which reminded me of the shooting exercises and I began questioning their merit and application to my shooting ability now. Was this just a mind trick for newbies?
Are there dry fire or other drills I could or should practice for distance and precision shooting? Would snap caps be a necessity for a centre fire target rifle? Can I quietly improve in the basement and save ammo?
Cake and eat it too?
