File too large to attach?  Link above.

(Edit- Note that some of the positions depicted are designed for military considerations, such as minimizing the profile of the shooter or for frontal body armor presentation.  Prone has no slant built into it; standing presents the front of the firer's body to the target.  Fine for soldiers, but 'orthodox' AS positions are better for rifle stability and good results on paper.)

I don't know how many have viewed this, but I found all of the information extremely useful.
Would recommend that this be put in the IIT area also (or at least linked in).  The pictures and
written information are clear and concise.

*The true danger is when liberty is nibbled away, for expedients, and by parts.
*The people never give up their liberties but under some delusion.
*Whenever separation is made between liberty and justice, neither, in my opinion, is safe.
