Just got my new (to me) SCATT system set up. I’m still poking around in the parameters but I can instantly see the value in the system and why everyone raves about it. I haven’t seen this system that Konrad is using, either. But the reason I mentioned playing with parameters is because he seems to have had a few shots off-call. I had this with Scatt and found that tweaking the F Coefficient brought them much closer to my experience. It is consistent to the point that I now trust the SCATT’s call more than my own.
Could you compare the NOPTEL to the Mantis system in the video explanation you're planning? If you're familiar with the Mantis system? It appears to be a much cheaper alternative to NOPTEL or SCATT. I'm curious what you think about the Mantis system.
Can you help me understand why you didn’t adjust 1/4 minute left for most of your string? Your videos have helped me on my mindset and position. Thanks and I hope you keep making great videos like this!
If the rifle is properly zeroed, my NPA should have put the group in the middle. The target being out of focus made it hard to really confirm my NPA so I was just really looking at the group that was being generated. I don't worry about sight adjustments in dry-firing like I would at a match.
Impressive hold. I’ve just started using a SCATT, and doing a similar drill…. Though I’m not quite ready to post my traces on RUclips 😱😱😱 Are there particular drills you’re doing, or is is “simply” the repetition of watching the dot, feeling the hold/break then watching the trace for feedback? Ultimately allowing the subconscious mind to “make corrections” through the repetition of dry firing… Thanks for posting and showing what right looks like.
To be honest, the primary reason for the dry-fire session was content to make the video. But I did want to look at my prone as I have been shooting some 9's recently. My biggest takeaway form this session was the out-of-focus target being so close to the optical sight. There's no formal drill involved. It's just trying to execute the basics (relaxed position, NPA on target, clear sight picture, smooth trigger squeeze) and then seeing what the result is. If the basics are executed, an X should be the result. It's more of reinforcing the basics rather than trying to find new techniques.
I apologize if I misunderstand the question, but here we go: One of the most important measurements in marksmanship is the measurement of angles. Usually we use degrees (360 per full rotation) or radians (2 pi per full rotation) to measure angles in every day life. However, these units are way too big to be effective measurements for marksmanship, so we use smaller increments of the standard units instead: MOA (Minutes Of Angle) or MRAD (Milliradians). MRAD is pretty simple: if a millimeter is 1/1000 of a meter, then a milliradian is 1/1000 of a radian. MOA, like most aspects of the Imperial Measurement system, is somewhat complicated and nonsensical. Essentially, each degree is broken down into sixty minutes (i.e: 1/60 of a degree), and each minute is broken down into sixty seconds (i.e: 1/360 of a degree). That’s MOA in a nutshell. When you are talking rifle accuracy, MOA can be used to convey mechanical accuracy of a given firearm as follows: a 1 MOA rifle will place all of its shots within 1/60 of a degree of the point of aim, neglecting any imperfections in the shooter (i.e: rifle is locked down in a bench rest). A scope uses a similar principle to adjust accuracy: a scope with 1 MOA turrets will pan (its not really translational movement, more of a very small rotation) the crosshairs 1/60 of a degree in any cardinal direction with the appropriate turret rotation. I hope that this clears up any questions you might have: if I completely misunderstood the premise of the question, please let me know and I’ll try and answer that question instead.
If I made a video about MOA for highpower competition my advise would be to just ignore the term. Think of adjustments on target in terms of clicks of the the sights. Much better in my opinion.
"I've got good tone....I'm talking the shot!". :-P
excellent reference LOL
Fox one!
Cool system. It seems like it's a great muscle memory developer. More time behind the gun has to be a good thing. Thanks for the video!
I enjoy your videos. I've never heard of this training system but it looks great. I'm sure you've seen the SCATT system. Can you compare the two?

Looks like a few questions about the NOPTEL electronic trainer. I'll have to make a video explaining the system.

I'm afraid I don't know anything about the Mantis and I don't know how to get access to one.

Scatt is best? very thanks

where did you get yours?
Busy day at Midway
Can you make a video addressing MOA? I'm a new rifle shooter, MOA is kicking my butt.

Vraiment bien ce système.....
Oui.
What system is this, do not know if I have ever seen it?
