Got a question for you, Rap. Is it true that you should keep both eyes open when sighting a rifle? I've seen a lot of people squinting shut their left eye while they sight with their right eye (or vice versa). Then I heard somewhere that there's no reason to do that, and you keep both eyes open and just relax the eye you're not sighting with. I presume a right-handed person sights with the right eye normally? That's the way I always did it, but I did deliberately shut the left eye while sighting. I'm just wondering if I was doing it the right way, so I'm asking an expert.
