mouse,

I agree with you totally.

I believe the action should be:

* focus on target,
* swing body with target,
* Correct gun mount,
* Correct gun fit,
* Reference to alignment of sights on target,
* Re-reference target,
* Press/squeeze trigger

All of this must be done without stopping your swing or lifting your head.

All similar practices to shooting a shotgun on a moving target.

I believe that, with a correct fitting gun and correct technique the "Reference to alignment of sights on target" practice would be minimized or eliminated at relatively short ranges with practice/confidence..........but I do it out of habit anyway.

I can see no reason that the same cannot be done with a bolt gun that fits you.

I'll go as far to say that it can be done with a pistol supposing you can draw, swing with target, align sights and squeeze trigger without stopping your swing or losing your front sight on target focus.

Usually in fast close shooting if you watch the front sight the back sight will look after itself. Often you take the fast shot just looking at the front sight and a quick reference to the back sight will show that it's aligned ............ on a shot that hits what you're shooting at.

I'd be interested in the views of a "gun coach".
