This video explains the military's rationale for using .22 Rimfire rifles in training. The core reason is to allow new shooters to focus on and master fundamental shooting skills like sight picture, sight alignment, trigger control, and follow-through without the distraction of recoil from more powerful cartridges. The description emphasizes that these learned fundamentals are transferable to larger caliber firearms, making the initial training process more effective for both military and civilian contexts. It addresses a common misunderstanding about the purpose of .22 LR training.
