[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 971737, member: 61747"] Understood. Your head is tilted to the right because your right shoulder is supported by your elbow which is raising the right side of your body. This puts a lot more strain on consistent eye alignment and introduces more muscle issues into the shoulder and trigger hand. Many experienced shooters can get away with awkward firing positions because they have overcome some of the fundamentals that plague newer shooters. Having said that, I am sure you can shoot fine, but precision shooting is not about being fine it is about being consistent day to day. An example of how this might work better for a shooter is while load development. If a person struggles a little then results will not be desirable and the dog chases its tail constantly. By most peoples standards these are decent groups. The groups were during load development. As you know hitting the bullseye is not the point until zereoing the rifle. I could and should re-shoot the second group shown here as I may have easily wiggled a round in or out of the group slighty. I am used to shooting decent groups but I do go through a series of exercises everytime I line up behind the rifle. I don't do this for a living so I still have to think through the shots and be mindful of form.
