Actually when you stress your self with time you can also with weights on rifle barrel too. The biggest contraction of muscle in standing is the biceps actually of your left arm ( right-handed). So strengthen the biceps in multiple ways can help the standing stability by so muchhh.
It would appear that there are comments that don't apply to a shooting video. Anyway, do you think the final approach should come up from the lower right? Or is this completely an individual preference?
Personal preference. My philosophy is if you are a righty, and you completely relax, the rifle will fall out off the target in the direction of 4:00ish. So you will always have that force pulling in that direction. So might as well approach from that direction to have the two forces counteract and smooth the approach.
@@BrianHalligan-USA I understand. As for me, I can't say for certain what my preference is, currently I would describe it as holding a bit above, and to the right, of the target and then dropping/approaching, angling at say a 45 degree to the lower left of the target, all the while hoping to squeeze off a shot while on the target. If I mess up as pass to quickly I have found that often I have one last chance to come back up the way I came,, but it's a split second chance, then everything goes wobble and one has to start over. What I last described, I think, sort of matches you advise of angling up and accross. I hope I made some sense there. Following your advise I have doubled my efforts with dry firing and it is paying off at the range. I sent you an email sometime back asking about the rifle center of gravity and if there was a preferred location, did you see it? Since I make my own stocks, and the current one is made of simple pine or Douglas fir, I have no reservations about reworking parts of it, cutting or grinding parts of it. Most recently I made a serious change to the lefthand/front hand rest. I have brought that hand closer to the grip and also closer to my body, it appears to be an improvement. Again, it was stuff gleaned from dry firing and then on the range.

Totally agree. When you get into standing shooting you need to be rock solid! complete control over the rifle and complete connection to your rifle.
