Do any of you use a shooting jacket when shooting? I saw some snipers from San Diego SWAT wearing a short Creedmore jacket at NASC 2010. They liked theirs. Just trying to get more feedback. Debating on geting one myself.
When I shot Service Rifle and High power rifle I wore a jacket( the full size one). They work well for 3 position type shooting with a sling. Jackets with heavy padding in them get hot. They do take some getting used to. They are not comfortable to wear. If you are shooting prone off a bi pod I would not consider wearing one. Shooting jackets are for a diffrent style of shooting.

The SWAT are not harbacks. Call Gina down there and they will square you up.
Thanks for the feedback guys. I just wasn't sure if there were enough advantages to getting one. I may call Gina like you said and see what they have. Thanks
