The ST-2 shooting simulator from Marksman Training Systems is the first shooting simulator for shotgun and rifle shooting designed specifically for demanding users such as shooting instructors who give professional shooting advice. Anyone, both new and experienced in shotgun or rifle shooting, can use the simulator to improve his or her shooting skills and enjoyment of the sport.
The model for external ballistics has been developed in association with BASC. Marksmen Training Systems are BASC trade members and have an ongoing partnership with BASC aiming at promoting good shotgun and rifle practice in UK.

Shotgun shooting whether it is clays or live quarry shooting differs from many sports in that sometimes it is difficult to know exactly what happened when you miss. You know you missed, but was it due to incorrect mounting, stopping the swing, or are you misjudging range or speed of the target When using a rifle when out stalking or controlling pests even if you can see the hit position, the problems are very much the same, particularly when shooting at moving targets.
The simulator can be used with most shotguns and rifles. The camera sensor that registers gun movements and shooting direction can be easily attached to the barrel of your own gun. The shooting direction is calibrated by a single shot at a calibration target. The shooting scenarios include moving and fixed targets. Starting position, trajectory, speed of the targets are parameters that can be altered by the user creating a wide variety of scenarios to practice on. Hit position and the effectiveness of the shot are evaluated according to all contributing factors: ammunition load and weight, range, target size, trajectory and speed.

Sergei S. Planovskiy
Trainer in Chief of the National Russian clay shooting Team:” This is the best simulator existing today designed for coaching purposes of clay shooters in the trap, double trap and skeet disciplines.
The ST-2 is an analytical simulator which allows a shooter to master the basic element in trap and double trap shooting including education of correct control of target visual perception:
1. Sequences in the distribution of central and peripheral vision;
2. Education to sequences of the central vision moving at moment of waiting for the target release;
3. At moment of target release and in process of the aiming and, finally, firing a shot.
This is very is important both for beginners and for those who have already reached a higher qualification in clay shooting."
The method used to register sighting direction in ST-2 is protected by international patents.
