Avoid gripping vertical foregrips like a handle; instead, use your back fingers on the grip and your palm on the rail to pull the rifle into your shoulder for better recoil control. This technique also allows for effective bracing against obstacles to create a stable shooting platform, enabling faster target transitions.
