If anybody needs basic shooting info - USMC Marksmanship Data Book (Older range course)

I wasn't sure if I should post this here or in Weaponry, sorry if it's in the wrong place.

Just browsing around the internet and found a pdf of the older data book I used to use. It's the 100 through 500 meter firing course, now it's different but I got out before the new course was fully implemented.

Just has some good basic info for marksmanship.

Of course it's centered around M16s and iron sites but basic fundamentals like safety, zeroing, site picture, trigger and breath control could be applied anywhere.

Just thought I'd share if it might be able to help any beginning shooters.

S&F Thanks for sharing! You should also look through cryptome and search army ranger field manuals! A lot of great ones out there.

Reads oddly familiar, lol!
Yep, this is about as basic as it gets and has some good reminders for experienced shooters as well.
