breaking-in new shooting coat

Post by Abi »

I've had my Monard Super since last summer, so now its "broken-in". I feel the shoulder/chest area is looser/more overlap. (for what its worth I shoot 3-P)

How common is it to move buttons around?

Before I punch more holes, I'm wondering if 1cm would matter...thoughts?

I would move it so as long as it would still be legal with the overlap and won't affect your position. I always liked my clothing to be form fitting to my position while still be legal.

Also... I treat all of my equipment the same way, making the nessassary adjustments to get to that perfect position.

The jacket is designed to be close fitting - especially in standing, so move the buttons, just make sure it remains legal.

Ok, sounds good. I think I'm just afraid of having swiss cheese for a coat :-)

Thanks for the reassurance, I'll move my top 2 buttons in closer (still legal), and if anything, I'll have the option to move them back out for winter shooting in thicker clothing.
