I wanted to share with you a resource I stumbled upon as I started the process of learning how to shoot and hunt last November.
This YouTube channel belongs to a retired gentleman in the states - he has a lifetime of experience along with solid empirical evidence behind his opinions and I have a great deal to thank him for.
His channel can be a bit difficult to navigate and you will have to search for some of these topics which are buried, but it is well worth the effort.
Here are some of the things he covers in excellent detail:
1. How to effectively aim a rifle/shotgun/pistol
2. How to dissemble and clean firearms
3. Different military shooting positions
4. pros and cons of various calibers
5. Debunking some basic firearm myths
6. Detailed guidance about handloading
7. Great moments of his dog benny

Below is his own description of his channel.
I am here to serve and teach you everything I've learned about firearms in my lifetime spanning 8 decades as a sportsman, hunter, competitive, and recreational shooter, and my professional career as a retired municipal police captain. I am a retired NRA Police Firearms Instructor, FBI Certified Firearms Instructor, and New Hampshire Certified Police Firearms Instructor. I received training in VIP protection by the Secret Service, and served with them as a protective sniper specialist for visiting Presidents and presidential candidates. I'm NRA Distinguished and will teach you to shoot to your best level. I've expansive and broad knowledge of firearms in virtually all aspects of handgun, rifle, and shotguns, with nearly 50 years of handloading and rifle accurizing experience that I wish to share with you, as my free gift, before my life's completed. Keep up with me, and you'll learn things found nowhere else, and even some things that are entirely unrelated to shooting! God Bless.
If you have any resources you use yourself for good information around hunting/firearms - please share
