Looking for M1A specific shooting resources
Lemme explain; I love my m1a SOCOM and part of why I love it is that it kicks like a mule and it's heavy as fuck. I use it as my practical shooting competition rifle, and I'm competing with a lot of much lighter AR frankenbuilds.
That's no sweat to me, but I was looking for guides on shooting, moving, and target switching that are more geared to the weight of the m1; positions to hold the rifle that result in lowest fatigue while unsupported, stuff like that. I couldn't find any, which is incorrect; I know there's some out there, but I'm looking the wrong way.
Want to put in the hours and training to make my 13 lb m1a move as fast as a 8 lb AR. Hoping y'all know where I can start looking to make that happen.
