All Marines share a common warfighting belief: "Every Marine a rifleman." This simple credo reinforces the belief that all Marines are forged from a common experience, share a common set of values, and are trained as members of an expeditionary force in readiness. As such, there are no "rear area" Marines, and no one is very far from the fighting during expeditionary operations. The Marine rifleman of the next conflict will be as in past conflicts: among the first to confront the enemy and the last to hang his weapon in the rack after the conflict is won. Rifle Marksmanship, a Marine Corps Reference Publication, provides techniques and procedures for Marine Corps rifle marksmanship. Every Marine is first and foremost a rifleman. Rifle Marksmanship reflects this ethos and the Marine Corps' warfighting philosophy. This publication discusses the individual skills required for effective rifle marksmanship and standardizes the techniques and procedures used throughout the Marine Corps. It constitutes the doctrinal basis for all entry-level and sustainment-level rifle marksmanship training.

Depends what you are looking for!,
By
This review is from: Rifle Marksmanship (Paperback)
This book could best be titled Basic M16A2 Marksmanship. The information is great for someone with very basic marksmanship knowledge. Full operation procedures for the M16 are included which makes this book of little use for users of other firearms. The appendix showing how to document shooting tests is helpfull and provides good ideas to build you own.So it you are just starting out and have an M16/AR15, this book if for you. However if you use hunting rifles and are not new to shooting positions and marskmanship, this book is not what you are looking for.

Basic Marksmanship Manual,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Rifle Marksmanship (Paperback)
This manual is written for the first time shooter, or first time introduction to the AR-15/M-16 line of weapons. It starts with the assumption that the you have no knowledge and works the concepts of the theory of firearms, safe handling, and then shooting from basic and advanced positions. For advanced shooters, it is at best a reference guide.
So if you want a good introduction to rifle shooting, this manual is an excellent low cost introduction.
