@Dan42ize Lol, no. It is just a .22lr rifle, so less report then most, and the mic is not picking it up fully, as it does not in other videos with more powerful rifles and shotguns.
@millerusaf That's to a point though. When you get too close you start to lose precision unless you have a really small rear aperture. I guess I just never use my small aperture for close range......
@gboyd242 The closer, the better. It doesn't matter if you are using the large or small aperture. A quick tip: Once you get really good at keeping both eyes open, you won't need the large aperture at all. In most close quarters (less than 25 yards) you won't use the aperture, but you will achieve a rough sight picture with just the front sight assembly.
@millerusaf I shoot both eyes open with anything 4 power or less. Most of my experience is with shotguns so that's what I'm used to. That said I still don't try to get as close as I can to the rear sight. I always position myself at the point farthest from the rear sight where I can still maintain focus. Otherwise I don't see how you can get any kind of precision. Now if you're just talking target acquisition I could see where you're coming from. Maybe my eyes are just messed up.
@millerusaf Just some fyi... you're saying that to a USMC PMI. I was the one that did KD rifle instruction for the base competition shooters. You'd want to back off the rear sight aperture in order to allow for a more precise center on the front sight post. Just sayin... you can continue shooting like that if you'd really like but it's not best practice.
@taurran I instruct use of the AR15 also. The tightest groups were always from folks that got up as close as possible to that rear aperture. With that said, there is usually more than one way to do things.
@taurran In my unit, we typically focus more on close quarters fundamentals, but longer distance engagement with the M4 is covered because of the after action reports received from the Afghan AOR.
Honestly, I wish I could trade my M4 in for even a basic M16A2 model. I would just run the forward-positioned A2 carry handle mount for an M68 CCO if needed. I prefer the full size over the carbine for Air Base Defense purposes (the most likely situation members in our unit may find themselves in).
@millerusaf Fair enough. The vid looked more like admin range shooting than anything. In for MOUT ops we learned to utilize an aggressive, squared off, groucho stance and combat glide. (I was an 0311/0331 before PMI ;) ) I didn't really mean to turn this into a dick measuring contest, but I guess it's to be expected. lol
@millerusaf Since we're all discussing marksmanship, she should also keep the trigger depressed while following the shot. Hammering off it usually decreases accuracy. ;)
@taurran If you are talking follow through all the way through recoil, she's got that down. She's been shooting her AK74 and my full size AR15 at 500 meters, and she'll smack the target with ease.
Plus, considering she is firing at a faster rate at a closer target, she's not going to hold the trigger back for a longer amount of time (no need to).
@nowthisis2stupidYes, I do. Why would I ask if I didn't? I suppose if it is a really small rear aperture and shooting close range that could work. It just looks awkward. Maybe I'm just not used to seeing smaller framed people shooting irons on a gun with minimal recoil.
@gboyd242 Okay first of all, most if not all Ar-15, and 22 versions have a large and small diameter diopter. I'm a large framed person and I shoot with my stock almost fully retracted (second notch out to be specific). and an AR-15 really doesn't have any recoil to speak of even in .223/5.56...
in fact, she is not close enough, nose on the Charging Handle is what they learn you in the army, and both eyes open, you can check that by finding movies on youtube, about zeroing in a AR 15/ M16
It's a .22lr so she can be steady all day long. Also her deadly accuracy is a different story when the target can shoot back. No pressure to shoot accurately when it is not for real.
Nice!!!

Do you think it is better to have a dedicated .22 platform like the M&P or will an AR with a .22 conversion kit work just as well?

@gboyd242 When using iron sights on an AR, you need to be as close as comfortably possible to that rear sight for a more precise shot.

@millerusaf Well at least we can agree there. There's another reason why we don't typically instruct distance shooting on carbine stocks.

Actually, the Army tells you to put your nose on the charging handle. You get a consistent sight picture, cheek weld, and you shoot more accurately.
If you think her shooting is weird, you might do some research on the matter and change how you shoot.
