Squaring up to the rifle and both knees on the ground does the trick for me. I also roll my hips slightly forward. If the position allows me; I'll sit back on my heels. It's all about getting as many points of contact as possible.
That was also five years ago. Even at the schoolhouse now, we have refined it and we run a better quick wind. Doctrine changes, but at the time from 2016-2017, that was what we put into print. But I feel the TC is a better product than what we had from the 09' and 13' versions. Luckily, and I'm...
The reticle. Just like irons, your focal point should be on the front sight post tip. The same applies to an optic; focus on the reticle once you have checked your npa and parallax.
The BC method of determining wind has been in circulation for years. Yes, Accuracy 1st has made it seem that they invented it. We still teach this method at the schoolhouse as well, though we have refined it to make it easier for students to use. Also, Hess didn't write the sniper TC. I wrote...

I use the TSB from Zikitec / FAB Defense. It provides me the most stable platform hands down and weighs next to nothing. Clamp systems are great, but still only offer one point of contact on the gun. Tactical Sniper Bench
Great podcast. Some really good discussion on the shot process of the sniper and how the United States Army Sniper Course uses their fight up/fight down drill to build proficiency and mastery of their sniper weapon system.

No just reading the manual. The example must be a typo then. That what was confusing me, as the example and the solution wasn't adding up, and I wanted to figure out the math behind it and see if we could do it without the software.
Thanks guys for the responses. Yeah, I just was reading through their manual and I thought the example used was interesting, as smoke is a common indicator in urban areas, and if the above formula provides another clue to what the wind is doing in that area, I'm alright with that. Again, I...
I was reading the Field Firing Solutions manual and on page 55, it goes into discussion on the wind vector screen and the wind calculator function. The example used is; Example: Say at 950 yards is some burning rubble and the smoke is moving from left to right across his field of view. The...
good question and I’ll inquire. Currently I use the Vertebrae band https://vertebrae.no/int/catalog/product/view/id/214/s/vertebrae-mirage-band-black/category/204/ I’ll find out and post when I get an answer.
What I teach is group/zero/ chronograph rifle then confirm at short-mid range (still inside supersonic) distance. If POA/POI is matching up, we then push out in distance, then tweak BC around transonic/subsonic distance if actual drops are not aligning with predicted drops. I factor in SD and...
I’ve done that and it’s not identifying Still no luck. My Kestrel switches over to the download progress screen, but then cuts out after five seconds. This is for both the app and dongle procedures.
We have been evaluating five T1000 units and so far we have had success with them. Our furtest test so far has been to 1640 meters, in which we could see the red indicator light flash while viewing through our optics. We did have some hits not register, but I think it was due to a misalignment...
