You have to practice to get good, and you have to practice to stay good.

If "first person" shooter games help, I'm the next incarnation of Carlos Hathcock for snipers. NO? I figured as much. ~sigh~

They could, if they interfaced to real gun, or aleast something with a realistic trigger group and with a MILES like laser to show where the thing was pointed when you dropped the hammer. Although recoil is extremely hard to simulate realistically. Might as well just use a real gun...well with the price of ammo today, maybe not.

It works for Abrams and Bradley gunners. (And it's also the business my division of my employer is in).
