Wow. It looks like great training – something that would benefit any one of us. And it sure would be nice to be given a Kestrel and Eberlestock backpack to use.
When he talks about pre-loading the rifle bipod, I wonder if the instructors (and shooters) took into account POI shifting? The problem is basically that the guard is connected to the barrel at the barrel nut. The authors of this video show a very good free body diagram of the problem.

Almost all my hunting is done in the mountains – rifle and muzzleloader. I find my most comfortable shooting position is sitting. It allows for a stable position and to be able to see over the grass and scrub. I will very rarely take a shot over 200 yards, even though I and my rifles are fully capable.

Sitting position is one of my most used- for rifles and handguns.
