State-of-the-art training principles: This book covers fitness, outer and inner stance, three-position shooting, supported shooting, movement sequences, the
air rifle, aiming trace diagnostics, exercises, mental training, training management and coaching.
Important developments and trends in equipment: Rifles, aiming accessories, aiming tests, clothing, ammunition testing...
For beginners, advanced shooters and champions. The standard work for coach training. Includes a chapter on three-position air rifle shooting and a chapter on
supported shooting. Numerous exercises, questionnaires, adjustment tables and training forms for practical use.
Material to accompany this book and the latest news about air rifle shooting can be found on my website www.heinzreinkemeier.de , Facebook and
YouTube.
The world of air rifle shooting is changing at a rapid pace. Guns and equipment are
being modernised at ever shorter intervals and the performance of shooters at all levels continues to get better and better. More and more countries are competing for medals and tenths of points
make all the difference between victory and defeat. All around the globe, shooters are training hard in national centres, local clubs and even at home. For many, leisure time, hobbies and
high-end sports revolve around pellets and air rifles. It is a fascinating technology that offers everything that a sport shooter could want.
This book is based on the German title ‘LUFTGEWEHR-SCHIESSEN’ from 2010. However,
just four years on from that publication, the text and images have been almost completely revised following changes to rules, guns and training methods. Decimal scoring has made the sport even
more demanding, as literally fractions of a millimetre now count. A simple glance at the scoreboards of the 51st World Championships in Granada 2014 shows that the best of the best have been
rocked. None of the Olympic finalists from London reached the men’s final. The 2014 World Cup in Munich was won by 14-year-old Martina Veloso from Singapore (see above).
To keep up with the pace of air rifle shooting, we’ve been adding brand new findings
to this book right up to the day before it goes to the printers. We also use a website ( www.heinzreinkemeier.de) and Facebook to publish reports and materials that we can’t fit into this book.
If you’re looking for further reading, you’ll find posters that you can print out (showing e.g. Ivana Maksimovic and Nicco Campriani), log sheet templates and much more besides. We have also made
videos of the shooters covered in this book, which are available on the website and on YouTube (search for Heinz Reinkemeier). These clips complement the more than 1500 photos in this book and
give you a good idea of what the movement sequences look like in action.
This book is a joint effort. It has been developed in the training, equipment and
photo labs at MEC and is based on our daily work with shooters from all over the world. The most important tools in making it have been a camera and video camera, and the most valuable method is
still talking to active shooters and their coaches during training sessions and at competition venues around the globe.
Special thanks go to Andrew Wood and Graham Rudd, who have put more effort into
translating my ‘gobbledegook’ than I could ever have imagined necessary in my worst nightmares...
We hope you enjoy reading this book and that it can help you make good progress in
air rifle shooting. If you have any questions or suggestions, get in touch with me through my website or on Facebook!

TROCKENTRAINING
Platz ist in der kleinsten Hütte: Drei bis vier Meter reichen aus, um in den heimischen vier Wänden den Anschlag und die Bewegungsabläufe zu trainieren. Als Requisiten benötigst du noch eine Ablage und eine verkleinerte Scheibe.
Ideal ist die Nutzung eines SCATTs, mit dem sich LG und KK maßstabgerecht simulieren lassen. Eine ‘Sitzung’ kostet nur wenig Zeit, bringt aber enorme Trainingseffekte. Wertvolle Dienste leistet ein Spiegel, der dir jederzeit zeigt, wie dein Anschlag ausgerichtet ist. Ein Poster an der Wand
erinnert dich an die wichtigsten Regeln.
Die Trainingsscheibe muss auf der richtigen Höhe hängen, damit das exakte Anschlagsgefühl erzeugt wird. Und sie sollte im richtigen Größenverhältnis erscheinen. Damit die Proportion
des Spiegels im Korn erhalten bleibt.
Um dir die Findung der passenden Größe und Höhe deiner Trainingsscheibe zu erleichtern, haben wir unten drei Schaubilder erstellt.
Zuerst die Größe des Spiegels je nach Entfernung. Wer weniger als 10 Meter für das Aufhängen seiner TT-Scheibe zur Verfügung hat, sollte einen kleineren schwarzen Kreis erzeugen. Den kann man sich mit dem SCATT Programm aus drucken lassen (SCATT.com) oder selbst mit der Schablone oben ermitteln. Dazu einfach die Entfernung in Metern in deinem Zimmer abmessen (Laufmündung bis Trainingsziel) und dann den Wert ablesen (z.B. 7 Meter = 22 mm).
Die Höhe des Trainingsziels zeigt die Schablone unten. Hier verbindest du die Höhe deines Auges beim Zielen (im Anschlag) mit der Höhe des tatsächlichen Ziels (im Verein oder beim nächsten Wettkampf). Meist sind dies 140 cm, die Regeln lassen 135 - 145 cm Höhe (Scheibenmitte) zu. Auf der Verbindungslinie suchst du nun deinen Abstand zur Trainings -scheibe. Der Schnittpunkt gibt dir die richtige Höhe an. Im Beispiel also: 170 cm Augenhöhe empfehlen 158 cm für die Trainingsscheibe wenn der reale Spiegel 140 cm hoch ist.

DRYFIRE
Space is available in the smallest hut: three to four meters are enough to to carry out the position andto train the movement sequences. Ideally you should use a SCATT, which allows AR and
.22 simulation. A 'session' costs little time, but brings enormous training effects.
Valuable services are provided by a mirror that shows you at any time, how your position is aligned. A poster on the wall reminds you of the most important rules.
The training target must hang at the correct height, so that the exact feeling is produced. And it should appear in the right proportions. So that the proportion
of the aiming spot is preserved in the grain.
To help you find the right size and height of your to facilitate training target, we have top
three diagrams.
At the top the size of the mirror depending on the distance. If you have less than 10 meters to hang up your DF-target you should have a smaller black circle. You can get this with the SCATT program printed (SCATT.com) or even with the template upstairs.
Simply measure the distance in meters in your room (from the muzzle of the barrel to the training goal) and then take the value (e.g. 7 metres = 22 mm).
The height of the training target is shown in the template below.
Here you connect the height of your eye when aiming (in position) with the height of the actual target (in your club or at the next competition). Mostly these are 140 cm, the rules allow a height of 135 - 145 cm (centre of the black disc).
On the connecting line you now search for your distance to training disk. The point of intersection gives you the right height on. So in the example:
170 cm eye-level = 158 cm DF target if the 'real' target is on 140 cm.
