The wheel is not for the shooter, the wheel is a memory aid for the coach. The shooter should never be allowed to see it. It is also not all inclusive - for example: A right-handed shooter in a combat stance will shoot low left when he closes his off eye. But not every time. And not much. And only if he has his off foot forward.

TS and TR are right of course. The biggest mistakes most people make are going to fast and/or learning the skill poorly. Imperfect practice is worse than useless.
Right, that's it! 5-7 meters tightest 5 shot group, I'll use your weapon and only five rounds....... Be forewarned I had an SF Medic that bet me I could not beat his "best", he's still cutting my lawn.

It's also no longer taught in FM 3-23-35. A fairly good FM IMO. (All those that cannot hit the water if they fell off the boat need to read this manual.)
