Shooting simulator

Marksman ST3 is a shooting simulator for real firearms. Train with your own rifles, shotguns, and handguns at national-team precision — real trigger weight, real mount, real follow-through. A patented optical tracker maps each shot onto a projected screen. It is not laser projection, not a VR headset, and not a game controller.

ST3 tracks shots to 0.18 MOA class precision, with about 1 ms latency. 235 calibers, 4,700+ ballistic profiles, 1,000+ scenarios: hunting, clay, running game, and field on one tracker. Marksman ST3 uses a wireless weapon-mounted sensor and screen mapping — not a laser insert. Training stays aligned with real rifles, shotguns, and handguns and ballistic feedback at 0.18 MOA.

Professional ranges choose Marksman because hit placement matters. Built for ranges, clubs, federations, and home rooms. Optimal screen is 550 cm wide. We size height and layout with you when you request a quote.

Accuracy comparison

Tracker precision vs laser

Professional ranges choose Marksman because hit placement matters. Our patented tracker maps real shots to the screen without laser projection — from the 1 MOA ST-2 generation to today's 0.18 MOA ST3 platform.

650×

More precise than laser

ST3 at 0.18 MOA versus typical laser simulators at ≥ 2° beam divergence — a 650× precision gap before you count ballistics, real-gun support, or scenario depth.

The ST-2 shooting simulator established Marksman's 1 MOA class accuracy (about 1 cm at 100 m) with a wired tracker and real rifles and shotguns. ST3 refines the same approach with a wireless sensor at 0.18 MOA for tighter groups and stricter validation.

Laser-based shooting simulators project an IR spot from the barrel. Divergence, screen reflectivity, and room lighting commonly limit practical accuracy to several degrees — far below professional MOA standards.

True-to-life training

Real weapons. Safety built in.

Train with your own rifle, shotgun, or handgun — real trigger weight, real mount, real follow-through. Scenario tools keep safety in the story before you head outdoors.

Shooter training with a real shotgun in a Marksman indoor simulator

Works with real guns

Rifle, shotgun & handgun training uses live firearms, not laser inserts. Authentic trigger break, bolt-action repetition, and tracking that respects how you actually shoot.

Safety first

Add hunters, beaters, and safety poles to scenarios. Practice identifying safe lanes and hold points before field days — obstacles stay visible on screen, not left to imagination.

Post-session diagnostics

See what changed, shot to shot

Every session leaves a trace. Replay movement, read hit position against ballistics, measure reaction time, and review KPIs before you step back on the line.

Movement replay

Replay the full shooting sequence. Barrel speed, mount timing, and follow-through are logged so you can spot technique drift frame by frame.

Hit position

See where the shot landed against target trajectory, ammunition, choke, and pellet data — the same factors that decide impact in the field.

Reaction time

Measure release-to-shot timing on clays and driven targets. Compare runs across a session to tighten sporting lines under pressure.

Pattern analysis

Sort hits and misses across a stand. Build a pattern from saved shots to decide what to adjust before the next round.

Watch real shotgun and rifle sessions on an ST-2 installation: driven birds, clay lines, and big-game scenarios with authentic trigger weight — not a laser pointer on a practice gun.

Say the simulator is a great tool for training regularly

In their words

1 / 5

The simulator session clearly helped with the complete process of mount, move, far more control. Being able to finesse the movement and break point is very pleasing. Real confidence booster as well, knowing that the feedback is accurate and then being able to transfer it to the range is incredible. A rapid learning experience.

FAQ

Who is the Marksman ST3 shooting simulator for?
Ranges, hunting clubs, federations, and private rooms. Same ST3 tracker: real firearms, 0.18 MOA, not laser projection.
How accurate is Marksman ST3 compared to laser simulators?
ST3 tracks to 0.18 MOA, about 1 ms. Typical laser simulators are limited by beam divergence to several degrees, roughly 650 times less precise than ST3, before ballistics and real-firearm support.
What is the difference between ST-2 and ST3?
Both use the optical tracker with real firearms, not lasers. ST-2 is about 1 MOA (about 1 cm at 100 m), wired. ST3 is 0.18 MOA, wireless. This page is ST3.
Can I train with my own rifle, shotgun, or handgun?
Yes. ST3 is built for real firearms, not practice guns or laser inserts.
Is a shooting simulator the same as a virtual shooting range?
In practice, yes. Marksman is a projector-based virtual range: optical tracker, ballistic profiles, clay and hunting scenarios.
Why not VR?
A headset sits between you and the firearm, so mount and follow-through no longer match the field. ST3 keeps the real firearm in your hands and maps hits to a projected screen at about 1 ms.
Can I install a shooting simulator at home?
Yes. ST3 installs in a dedicated home room. Tell us about the space and we will confirm what fits.
Is this a live-fire stand?
No. It is a projected simulator with an optical tracker. No live ammunition on the screen.
Will it fit a 230 cm ceiling?
That depends on the room. Write to us with the ceiling height and we will tell you.
