Precision target shooting Fundamentals book or video

[crowellsr]

I'm finding myself doing a lot more bench target shooting recently and was looking for recommendations of a book(s) or instructional video(s) to properly teach me the fundamentals of precision rifle target shooting. I typically shoot from a bench from 100-500 yards and want to make sure I am doing it correctly to become a better shooter. Most of the time when I go to the club I am the only one shooting so getting a mentor is most likely going to be a tough task.

I have Lyman's "Long Range Precision Rifle Reloading Handbook".It's primarily a reloading manual with chapters on PRS basics and rifle and scope info.I bought it for the extra loading data and to learn more about the scope/reticle options that are preferred.
