The Hodge Twins have a funny story about how a casing went down one of their shirts and the guy lost his sh*t flailing his firearm in an unsafe direction and was taken down by the range officer. If you have a casing go down your shirt, put the firearm down. Don't wave it in an unsafe direction.
She mentions leaning forward in an isosceles. I don't shoot from an isosceles. To me that's too Charlies Angels. I shoot from a modified weaver. My range buddy teaches cops to shoot from an isosceles because they wear vests and you don't want a deflection to hit your partner. A friend who was a range officer at Shooters taught me to shoot from a modified weaver years ago and I stuck with it. That's what feels most comfortable for me.
I don't wear a vest and I think a modified weaver is still better in case they're using a hunting round. That way it will deflect and you won't take the full force head on. You can't shoot a rifle from an isosceles so keep it consistent. We basically have one grip in Canada. I cheat and modify that for my .44 magnum but that's just my thing. It's what I find comfortable. Old school retro.
