    I enjoyed the post. The OP gives good reminder of to be consistent in shouldering firearms.

    A good jacket/vest with substantial shoulder pad(s) to rest the stock against helps to avoid developing the dreaded flinch. Once your shoulder is sore you just try and shoulder it different ways to spread the hurt.... bad.

    I'd add to the article - since we have an argument with precision vs accuracy - that for hunting (and not everyone hunts of course) the accuracy/precision that matters is not group sizes, but where the first, cold-barrel, shot impacts.
