Are there any videos and books that really go through proper shooting technique. Looking for material on proper form, grip on rifle, trigger control, breathing ect.. I find tidbits on youtube..sniperhide stuff but not one source. Id even be interested in hiring a pro instructor or take a class..Any leads? My shooting has improved alot over the past 2 years but still get flyers on groups and am sure I could get better with proper instruction. If I ever did enter a F-Class competition, Id like to not look like an ass :)
 
I think you should just go to Nokomis and not worry about how you look. Most of the guys are too busy worrying about their own scores to be paying much attention to yours. Its a friendly bunch.

Hey Scott

I was just thinking of making a post like this one and since your close to me Id thought I would jump in. :)

I was looking at maybe checking RFMA next year, but dont know if I wanted and could get the time for it, but if you found someone local, I would be willing to pay some cash for something like this if you dont mind another guy.

I think one of my main problems is holding my point of aim while waiting for my shot to break in between breaths.
 
Like Dogleg said make a trip out to Nokomis for one of the open houses. You will learn alot and can give F-class a try lots of good coaches out there.
