(_d_) _Before snapshooting practices_: Combining rapidity with accuracy of aim; aim being tested with aiming-disc.
(_e_) =Before firing at the Target with scenery and figures or at landscapes=: Marking down an enemy, and aiming at ground and service targets; aim being laid from aiming-rest at points or targets indicated.
=2. Instruction in Aiming.=--(i) This training can be carried out on the Target without scenery (Fig. 53), as described in Chapter III. _Elementary training_ should be carried out as described in Sec. 70, para. 1. _Aiming at service targets and ground_ can be taught on the Target with scenery and figures and on landscapes as described in Sec. 19, para. 2 (ii). _Marking down an enemy_ can be taught on the Target with scenery and figures as described in Sec. 19, para. 3 (ii), a number of figures representing men at different distances being exposed from behind cover or in the open to represent the movements of the fatigue-men.
(ii) _Aiming-off for wind_ can be taught on the Target with scenery and figures as described in Sec. 20, para. 4, figures representing men at different distances instead of fatigue-men. _Aiming up and down_ may also be taught as above according to the instruction laid down in Sec. 21, para. 3, figures representing men at various distances being exposed on Tiers A and B to represent an advance or retirement in the place of fatigue-men. _Aiming-off for movement_ can be taught with the crossing figures on the Target as described in Sec. 22, para. 1.
(iii) _Rapid adjustment of sights_ can be taught on the Target with scenery and figures by exposing a number of figures representing men at different distances. The distance of each figure will not be given. Men will adjust their sights for the distance at which they estimate it to be. The correct range of the figure will then be given, and the men will declare their estimate. As the figures are correctly scaled to size for 25 yards range, this practice will help to accustom the eye to the appearance of men at different distances, and so help to some extent to train them in judging distance, though it cannot be considered wholly satisfactory for this purpose for the reasons given in Sec. 70, para. 2.
