[QUOTE="Doom2, post: 3026466, member: 108323"] There is no "one" answer to the question. As you mention everyone is different and that includes our physical construction of our hands and fingers. What works for one may not work for another. What all the various recommendations try to achieve is to have as little input into the rifle as possible. That means not jerking the rifle in any direction (hence squeeze not jerk) and not putting a lateral (sideways) force on the rifle (pull straight back). Depending on the size of your hands, the design of the stock, and whether you shooting off hand or shooting stick or rest what is right for you will likely be slightly different. Or it may be significantly different. If you think about it, a woman with short fingers and a man with a big hand and long fingers are not going to be placing the finger on the trigger the same unless the stock is different. They both must find a method to achieve straight pull, not any specific trigger/finger placement. [/QUOTE]
