Mindset is most important. If you trained with the late Col. Cooper, you know that.

The fundamentals of markmanship can be successfully taught without games. And I believe taught better than with games. You nailed it with "but it is better than nothing.".
And what have I posted would indicate I feel about mindset differently? If you would re-read what I have posted, you would see I did point that out. How do you think one could handle all of the variables I listed without a proper mind set. Mindset, as the Cooper pointed out allowed you to focus on the important items, which may or may not be the shot. If you understood what Cooper was teaching, you would know that.
Sorry, no denergration of the shooting skills these two have demostrated, but real CQB (not just military) is far different than any game and requires far more than game optimized shooting skills.
