[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1985041, member: 69478"] This is something that I was just discussing with a friend of mine who just got out of the Marines a few months ago. We were out in field conditions and I was shooting prone with one of my hunting rifles. I know my form isn’t perfectly in line with the rifle, it never has been. I’ve tried getting squared up behind the rifle many times and it just doesn’t feel right to me and I can’t get comfortable. So I jokingly said to him to not give me a hard time about my form because the Marines trained them to shoot squared up behind the rifle. He just laughed and said that works at a perfect range but we’re out in the field and I was shooting pretty well that day haha. The point is, if you’re shooting well than stick with whatever works for you. I think there’s a lot behind the squared up shooting position and it’s a great thing to train new and inexperienced shooters to do. I don’t think it’s perfect for everyone though. [/QUOTE]
