Hello,

I am very "green" and really need some instruction on the appropriate posture for 10m air rifle.

Are there any pictures/drawings on the web of the "correct" form?


I would really appreciate it.

Hi

Go into the MEC Web site, and check out their book Ways of the rifle.
www.mec-shot.de
They publish a few pages of the book on the web showing the different postures for standing.

Failing that, buy the MEC books, either Ways of the rifle or Air rifle shooting.

Either of the books that Peepsight recommends are one of the best shooting investments you could make. The do cover some of the same ground and although "Air Rifle Shooting" concentrates on that discipline there is much that can be read across to cartridge rifle. Of the two books, I think that "Air Rifle Shooting" is the better. But there really isn't much in it and either would be a good buy.

I see in another thread you are thinking about changing rifles. Buy one of the books first, then think about a new rifle.
