Marine Corps revises rifle marksmanship training tables

 From here...http://www.marinecorpstimes.com/story/military/careers/marine-corps/2015/03/17/maradmin-details-revisions-to-marine-corps-rifle-training/24857631/


"The new Table 2 is the latest move away from traditional bulls-eye marksmanship and towards combat marksmanship. The revised Table 2 introduces Marines earlier in their training to shoot/no-shoot scenarios, photo-realistic targets, shot placement, and firing from long to short ranges as if closing with the enemy. It forces Marines to recognize and quickly engage multiple targets. To simulate a combat environment as closely as possible, range commands will be issued similarly to commands Marines would receive as part of a fire team or squad."
