It appears to be a pretty comprehensive list. Can anyone make recommendations on which are a couple of the better books on learning and working on basic marksmanship principles. Books that include diagrams and illustrations of the written descriptions would also be helpful to see if what I am doing matches or is close to the proper techniques and fundamentals.
 
I posted this list for discussion purposes. I just finished "The Ultimate Sniper" and would like to discuss it. I am open to discussing any book. Most of these are found on Amazon as used and much cheaper.
 
There is a wonderful facility west of Fort Worth run by an ex british royal marine. They have many classes and ranges out to 1000 yards.

My favorite book so far is by Maj. Plaster "The Ultimate Sniper". He consults with military and police sniper organizations.
