The one-day course with the precision rifle somewhat nondescript initials' S4G "is conducted by the Swiss Shooting School NDS. The instructors show the process can put the potential in a .223 Remington.
"The .223 Remington is too weak and vulnerable to side winds, beyond the 200 meters too vague and target ballistic almost over the entire distance without effect. Moreover, it is completely impossible to generate a military self-loading rifle of this caliber to 500 meters reproducible results on a man wheel. "Such and similar statements are occasionally heard when the discussion on the caliber .223 Remington or his military pedant 5.56 x45 to speak comes.
The course "Sniping 4th Generation breaks with many prejudices about the .223 and even experienced shooters are surprised regularly to what is the .223 in a position to apply as long as the tax man behind the rifle, the basic skills of shooting and correct the trajectory of his load that knows. The instructors at NDS (neurons Defense Systems) are exclusively active or former members of the Swiss army, who pass on their knowledge and skills to federal police officers or other private gun owners. All shooting and self defense courses at NDS are practical and provide a universal system of weapons handling. In the precision rifle course S4G participants to one or other military component of the rifle scope rifle shooting is brought near. This is methodologically inevitable first and second terms of the target group of NDS is not surprising.
The Designated Marksman
The current armed conflict created a reduction in combat distances with it. often must be fought in urban terrain. Analyses of the U.S. armed forces shows that the average distance is statistically proven in military use of hand weapons in 100m. Often only 20 to 30m. What is already in the Vietnam War era and the beginning of the 21st Century to pull back a trend seen only in current conflicts and current events to draw conclusions about the military shooting training. As a result, shots were formed over long distances only rudimentary. The U.S. armed forces began some time ago the "infantry half-kilometer" reclaim and reintegrate him into the shooting training. happened According to the materialist approach in the first place due to technical upgrade of the existing hand weapons. The concept is called the Americans and the Designated Marksman Rifle Designated Marksman Rifle (DMR). The Designated Marksman is incorporated as opposed to a pure sniper in his group or company and supports them both by precise shots at more distant targets as well as "normal" infantry fire. The Swiss, however, had abandoned the concept of an integrated group in the sniper before. Quite the contrary; It was in the past decades consistently expanded and improved. In addition, the Swiss realized anything at any time more on natural shooting skills of a soldier, as the focus lay solely on the purchase of more and more an expensive material. The result is summarized in the one-day course S4G.
philosophy of S4G
Participants will be equipped for the course with a Rifle hire and optics, and also get the required amount of ammunition to complete the course. The philosophy is characterized by the principle of minimalism. To attend any weapons with match barrels are required just as self-loaded precision munitions and expensive high-performance optics. Rather, it is paired to a minimum proficiency of the shooter with a reasonable shooting technique as the main component used and the fact that the performance of normal self-loading rifles or assault is often underestimated. The concept of the course is supported by four pillars:
An assault rifle 90 in caliber 5.56 x 45 equipped with a 4x magnifying scope, foreign ballistic method of continuous sight range (. And battlefield target or English called Battlefield Zero), which is a second breakpoint supplemented. The same applies to the compensation of cross wind.
In addition, the participant, the routine of rapid single fire is instilled, should the first-shot hits have no effect on the target.
Furthermore, it is assumed that a well-trained shooter can achieve from the prone position out an average spread of 1 ° / ° ° (one per thousand), reproducibly.
average scattering
The average dispersion of the overall package People & weapon can be determined in a standard procedure.
From a distance of 25m is 5 shots from the shooter vertical, 5 shots kneeling, lying 5 shots and then starts over again until he missed a total of 100 rounds added. As the target medium, the silhouette is 100m on the Swiss NGST disc. Every shot should be given specifically. Trained marksmen can keep this a rhythm of one shot per second.
shows Normally, after the shooting exercise frames a palm-sized hole in the windshield of a few outliers. With average shooters less than 25% of the shots are out of the hit zone. This target practice should be understood primarily as a didactic means to underpin that the average spread is sufficient in all three shooting positions, to place 75 to 80% risk of a first shot hit on a 100m distant goal.
Will you identify his personal average scattering for each shooting position, a little more effort. For the prone position would be 25m to the finish also fell short. There should be at least 100m or 50m. Well-trained shooters who are able to implement basic skills of shooting, use reference points between man and weapon as well as the natural destination to reach, in the prone position an average spread of 0.5 ° / ° ° or 1 °/°°. 1 ° / ° ° is the shooter in a position to take on 600m distance a square 60cm by 60cm times safely.
further objective of this exercise is to show that it is not always "The 10" has to make and can not be seen statistically. The shooter is the average scattering a helper to achieve in a military environment an extremely high success rate. Another resource for this is the fastest single fire.
fast single shots
The Swiss army is its soldiers from the first day of shooting basic training from the fact the goal to shoot with a fast single shot if the first shot has shown no effect on the target. This gives the soldier from five targeted shot with a rhythm of about two shots per second. This method has a distinct boundary with the U.S. "Spray & Pray" - the quick fire in the general direction of the target. During fast single shots to make the shooter again a clean shooting technique and learned the natural target point advantage. The most important requirement is of course a proper trigger control. By tearing off the trigger, the average spread would extend to a multiple and contrary to the concept of S4G. The course was found that the Feuerart of rapid single fire over the entire distance range from zero to 600m success is promising to apply.
-length visor area
The Einschießmethode of the passing sight range (DWJ 03/2010) means to inject a gun so that the shooter can use on the widest distance only a sighting adjustment and a break point and the projectile during the entire flight path course not higher increases than half the target amount. The "half target amount" is the determinant. It is assumed the target was about 40cm high. In a modern assault rifle in caliber .223 Remington can thus realize a continuous sight range from zero to 300. That's enough for an application in the concept of S4G is not enough. Remedy the choice of a second breakpoint.
In the course of the shot guns at 25m mark. In a line of sight of approximately 85mm, the floor a very steep angle of departure, resulting in the average distance between 200 and 300 to a huge peak of up to 30cm. The shooter takes in this area (to about 400m) a second stop to help. He can sit up the torso of the opponent. The rule of thumb is: Can you tell by the ZF details on the uniform, the distance from the "moderate" is. Can we not recognize these details, the goal is "far" away. The soldier selects a break point at which the target is almost completely obscured.
The simple method of continuous targeted area is only a component extended. Laborious and time-consuming removal of unnecessary resources. Similarly, the shooter is not compelled, during the firefight to turn screws on its scope.
StG90 and 4x optical
NDS The organizer will provide each candidate an assault rifle 90 which is connected to the weapon type of the SIG 550 series are almost identical. All weapons are equipped with a 4x magnifying scope of military production and of older design. The optics have spiked as a target reticle. In terms of the options that the market has in these days in terms of precision rifles, this composition seems their time to lag behind. Nevertheless satisfy both weapon and look to the requirements of the course and hit allow up to a distance of 600m.
course schedule
The one-day course begins with the sighting of weapons. The participants shall use for a 25-m short-range weapons. The sighting is carried out from a lying position. A backpack is the only support for the stabilization of the weapon. The aim is to sight-in on 25m with a bullet hole group that can be covered by a 2-euro coin. The team weapon, ammunition and man could achieve a much better precision. The contradicts the principle of minimalism, the NDS has prescribed. The instructor eighth, however, very closely on a correct trigger manipulation by the participants. To learn to master the relatively long trigger travel a SIG assault rifle, is taught to consciously trigger to the rear fence to push and slide in a controlled movement forward. Over the entire path of the trigger finger keeps constant contact with the trigger. When
Einschießprozess procedure is such as if the catch-all or Verstellmaße scopes are unknown. The shooter is methodologically useful, but he gets such a methodology taught adjustment is need every unfamiliar scope with a minimum of effort to.
In the course of the morning worked out all aspects of the shooting concept S4G in dialogic principle. For example, consider how long it takes for a shooter to identify with his means the distance to an object. In contrast, the S4G concept of "near" and "far" distance during live fire is used. The same applies for a finding of the crosswind by conventional means. The S4G concept is also working again with only two stops. Depending on wind strength and distance to destination.
embarrassed After lunch the participants directly to the 600-meter track. launched from the prone shooting position, all aspects of S4G concept be put into practice. To the surprise of many a participant, the folding plates are made at the end of the 600m track around actually. Despite the increasingly inefficient as a .223 caliber Remington titled.
Conclusion
When aiming at as a gunner, a broad knowledge base, the precision rifle course S4G an important stone in the overall puzzle of personal training. The course is methodically built up very well and leads to a sustained improvement in shooting technique. to the individual experience, have set up a .223-Remington auto-loaders successfully over a distance of up to 600 meters, is useful for self-confidence of each shooter.
All significant findings of the course are summarized in the 50-page book "Le 4ème génération de sniping" Philippe Perotti. The book is available only in French.
