So I am in the process of getting all my paperwork squared away for the Marines. I (hopefully) will be shipping for boot in February. I was in the car with my recruiter today and I mentioned that I'd be bringing my rifle down to college with me after Thanksgiving break and asked if he could spend a few hours at the range with me. His reply was that I should stop working on my accuracy immediately and forget everything I think I know about shooting and that trying to practice will only cause me to develop bad shooting habits.
Any Marines in here agree? I guess it makes some sense. Any tips on how to unlearn how to shoot (bump firing comes to mind)? I kind of want to start with a blank slate now. If you've got any suggestions pass them along. I'm PTing my John Brown hind parts off right now, 3mi/day and 10 pull ups every time I walk in or out of my room plus a set of 20 every morning and night. For push ups I'm doing four 10 rep sets of incline, decline, and regular once a day. Plus MMA practice Tuesdays and Thursdays 9-10pm.
