How do you hold?

How do you hold?

And, and you using a 6 o'clock hold or a dead hold?

 

[RiverRat]

I’ll be on the “A” team.

"B" and I prefer a 6 o'clock hold but with some of my guns I use a dead hold depending on distance.

Another B shooter.

 

[Bearkiller]

That would be a "B" Bob @ 6 o'clock

 

[hogslayer]

B six o'clock

I use "B" when I can but certain shots require different sight pictures. At the bench I use The "B" hold because there is less chance of error. You can't go left or right and up and down it is more or less fixed? On moving targets I use "A" due to less time to dial in. In low light it also works for me, Sometimes? LOL!

B six o’clock hold most of the time for me

I never liked the 6 o'clock hold, if the distance varies the hold varies, if the bullseye size varies the hold varies.

I will zero at a known distance and then shoot at different distances to know how much to compensate, that is what works for me.

All of the above. Depends on the gun*. All part of the fun of learning your firearm.

* Milsurps mostly. I generally don't mess with the sights on a collectible. I just learn which sight picture to use and where to hold it for each gun.

Nevertheless, my preferred sight picture would be "A" with "centered" hold.
