As for rifles, most of my field shooting is with a CZ452 Varmint, 4-12X AO scope. Last year, I bought a rifle that I think is meant for this kind of "training" (in spirit anyway) and Anschutz 64 MPR "Tactical Trainer". See my post here; http://www.outdoorsmenforum.ca/showthread.php?t=345003 At the time, it came equipped with a 20MOA rail, incredible trigger and at it's heart..the Anschutz 64MPR. Great gun, very heavy though. I baby it too much, but have bought a selection top-shelf ammo to try through it when the dam* weather cools off a bit here in Ontario.

I call it training, controlled breathing, trigger squeeze, target acquired, 200 yard target, keeping it all together fully knowing that a 100 buck bet is on the line of making the shot....good training to keep it together and have bragging rights for another week at work
