Ever try shooting while moving?
Not going from station to station but firing while in motion.
Walking forward, moving to the side or in any other direction. Not nearly so easy as Hollywood makes it look.
The first few times I tried it I couldn't hit nutten. Then I figured out, keep your knees bent at all times and work on being as smooth as possible.
Seems to help if you place your heel down first with each step. When moving to the side place the outside (knife edge) of your foot down first.
You know you're getting it when your sights don't bounce all over the place.
Even though I've been shooting for many years, shooting on the move is kinda new to me. And I haven't even tried it with a long gun yet.
Anyone have some helpful information you'd like to share?
