POTD: Speed and Precision - Sniper Championship
It’s been a while since we ran snipers in action on our Photo Of The Day, but today we have some really cool images to share. Here you can see snipers take on the rapid fire match during day three of the 54th Winston P. Wilson (WPW) and 34th Armed Forces Skill at Arms Meeting (AFSAM) Sniper Championship at Fort Chaffee, Arkansas, last December.
Hosted by the National Guard Marksmanship Training Center, the event brings together top-tier sniper teams from across the U.S. military and allied nations.
Competitors are tested in precision shooting under pressure, tactical decision-making, and fieldcraft, paying tribute to the long-standing tradition of military sniper excellence.
Shooting precision with a high heartbeat is a fantastic way to train and compete. It makes things a lot more realistic. Is this how you train?
Tan is still in fashion for rifles and accessories.
