Just a quick question regarding this piece of drill as it seems there are a few contradictory bits that can be misleading. When positioning the rifle in front of the body I'm doing this with it in line with the LEFT breast pocket. I have seen this on most sites and of videos yet in the description on the home page this says barrel band should be on line with RIGHT eye? I have also been told on occasions that it is the rifle SITE. that is level with the eye and not the upper barrel band. Confusing as you can imagine. Just wanting to know exactly what is right? Many thanks.

Yes I have seen the video Harold did it's.great. so I take it that this is correct in every way then?That will mean that on the link entitled drill on the home page in the section describing present arms that the bit where it says on level with right eye is wrong - it should say left eye.
