[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 3027383, member: 10291"] I couldn't agree more that training/observation by a "skilled" instructor is priceless. I was fortunate at a young age to have benefited from this, and found that the fundamentals, once engrained and routinely practiced will serve a lifetime of successful shooting. While there are several aspects of shooting form that contribute to accurate shooting, IMO, one of the most critical and perhaps least understood or practiced is the [B]integration[/B] of the trigger squeeze [B]and [/B]eye focus on the front sight(crosshair) only. Intensity of eye focus should ramp with the trigger pressure. The two are inseparable, and the sight picture should not be in a flat, 2 dimensional plane of target/sight. Perhaps this is not so much of a factor with the free-recoil benchrest shooters using 3 ounce triggers, it can make a material difference in accuracy with supported rifle shooting/LRH. Just my 2 cents. [/QUOTE]
