Marksmanship Training
The position and hold must be firm enough to support the rifle.
What does this mean for us? We won’t always have the luxury of shooting from a structure and will need to rely on our personal strength and agility to operate the rifle correctly and accurately. The terrain and visibility will usually be the deciding factors for the shooting position you adopt. In this example, we will use the standing unsupported position.
Question:
How do we ensure that our position and hold are firm enough to support the rifle? (For a right-handed shooter)
Answer:
We can achieve this by following a checklist of nine points:
-
Foot position: Point the leading foot toward the target you intend to shoot.
-
Butt position: Firmly position the rifle butt between the top of the shoulder and chest.
-
Left hand position: Place the left hand comfortably on the stock. This hand is used as a platform, so make sure not to squeeze the fore-end of the rifle.
-
Left elbow: Tuck the left elbow into the chest, creating a solid V that will support your left-hand platform.
-
Right hand: This hand grips the rifle, with your index finger resting on the trigger. Your thumb should wrap around the grip for a firm hold. Use this hand to pull the rifle firmly against your body.
-
Right elbow: Depending on your size and posture, position this elbow and tuck it toward your chest to complete the unsupported shooting platform.
-
Head position: Position your head so it rests on the comb of the stock, directly aligned behind the sight. Eye relief is sight-dependent and varies based on the build of the shooter. Typically, the correct eye relief for an optical sight is between 6–8 cm, but this can vary. Never rest your eye on the sight.
-
Breathing and relaxation: Often, we see newcomers on the range gasping for breath after taking their shot. We must breathe and relax while shooting. Once relaxed and with breathing under control, we will see the sight picture moving up and down through the target, in line with the breaths we take. On the natural exhale, we can then execute the shot.
The Position and hold must be firm enough to support the rifle.
The rifle must be held upright and pointed naturally at the target without undue physical effort. It should align with the body's bone structure, not relying on arm muscles. Get Comfortable!
A firm hold doesn't mean gripping the rifle too tightly, which could cause tension and instability. Instead, it involves a secure, controlled stance that allows the rifle to rest steadily. This foundation ensures the rifle stays on target, even as the shooter controls their breathing and prepares for the shot. A stable position is key to maintaining accuracy and consistency during marksmanship.
