I shoot in smallbore prone competition. At 68 yrs, I no longer can use iron sights, therefore, I compete in the any sight class.
Using a Weaver T-24 with a 1/4 moa dot, I struggle with pulse.
I can generally area aim & have worked my way up to expert ranking after 10 matches using a govt surplus Kimber 82g. (recent avg is 1586) My problem is that if the shot breaks as the rifle is rising with the pulse or dropping, the result is a 9 high or a 9 low. Generally 11 o clock or 5 o clock. Not all the time, but enough to be frustrating.
Now the question: Where on your arm do you place your sling? High on the bicep or lower? & why.
Suggestions from those that know more than I are welcome.
Presently, I have the sling as high as I can get it on my jacket.
