This video provides a beginner-friendly guide to properly mounting and gripping a rifle, emphasizing control through proper hand placement, body mechanics, and recoil management rather than brute force. Key techniques include positioning the support hand for stability, achieving a solid cheek weld by shrugging the shoulder, and adopting a balanced stance to absorb recoil. The instructors advocate for 'easy effort' and allowing the rifle to behave naturally, highlighting that excessive grip pressure or fighting recoil often worsens performance.

This video demonstrates the 'flat stockhold' technique for managing rifle weight, particularly for AR-15 platforms. By turning the stock flat and pulling the rifle closer to the body, the shooter reduces perceived weight and strain, making it easier to maneuver and maintain a stable shooting platform. This method facilitates quicker transitions on and off target by simplifying the movement to a push-out action.
