[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 225367, member: 412"] What's he using for ear protection? IMO/IME noise is at least as bad and often much worse than physical recoil. We forget how tender a new-shooter's ears can be. Build muscle memory/strength without live rounds. Nothing wrong with sitting on the living room floor concentrating on a small spot on a far wall. Watch to see if he's rolling his shoulder into the shot and/or jerking his head up off the stock to "peek" over the scope. I'm quite guilty of the "shoulder-roll and peek" technique if I don't calm myself just a little. 22's and clay pigeons make for pretty good training. Where are you located? [/QUOTE]
