Is there any more because it sounds like he wasn't finished talking about trigger squeeze? Also, what about the first part on sighting and aiming?

[GladCamper]

Yes there is more I'll try and upload it.

I don't have the first part, sorry.

@DaytonaRoadster And shooting elbow down creates a bulge of muscle where the buttplate rests, and when fired, the rifle wobbles around and become unsteady and bulky, making it harder an longer to line back up on target, plus it makes your shoulder sore after awhile.

I've shot both positions, and the arm out is far superior.

@LoneWolf051 LOL and Iraq had WMDs...i got a bridge to sell you

[LoneWolf051]

@DaytonaRoadster Chicken winging makes the rifle more steady, and reduces recoil.

[DaytonaRoadster]

@LoneWolf051 you never want the butt of you rifle over you shoulder, it causes flexing and increases felt recoil. The position in the video also has the rifleman 'chicken-winging' his arm...which will end up getting shot.

Almost everything in this video is wrong

[LoneWolf051]

@DaytonaRoadster Thats the position you shoot in when you want to hit what you're shooting at, and to reduce recoil so you can get more accurate well aimed speedy shots off.

[DaytonaRoadster]

thank god the GIs ignored all this garabage, look how high he's holding the rifle, and the postion of the rile on the shoulder

@djohnson1981 It is bad in a battle situation, putting the left hand back doesn't steady the rifle, it'll jump higher causing longer time to get back on target. In battle, the enemy doesn't stay still for you to shoot. In competition, the target is still and doesn't shoot back. The NRA high power stance lets the shooter support n steady the rifle more with the left hand. So there, one for battle, one for target and you can't flip flop.
