In my ragtag nasty guard unit we seldom use simunition rounds and I don't care about it really, because sim rounds are really unimpressive if you are doing anything other than CQB. During bootcamp the opfor "ambushed" us during FTX and they fired at us with sim rounds from their M4s, it was pathetic -they had to angle their M4s up like Mortars and the sim rounds still fell short of us and they couldn't have been more than 100-150 meters away.
Most of the time though we just put blank fire adapters on our M4s when we are practicing battle drills. We don't bother about "who hits who" because it isn't a game. We just run through the procedures.

I've always wanted to do MILES but everyone I've talked to only has bad things to say about it.
