I'm new to muzzleloading and have been getting great help from you all about other topics. I'm much more familiar with handguns than long guns so my question is:
Does anything about using a muzzleloader promote a certain shooting stance that is different from other rifles?
For example, I've seen people make a fist and support the stock close to the trigger guard for target shooting -likely rimfire. I've also seen the newfangled MagPul support arm straight out grasping close to the barrel of an AR (I don't really like that one). I have a shotgun too and learned that the left arm should be "comfortably extended". I wonder if anything about Pyrodex changes our form as it takes longer for a bullet to leave the barrel.
I'm under-educated about long gun shooting but I do carry my fundamentals regarding sight alignment, breathing, trigger control and follow through from handguns.
Apologies for the strange question. Have a great day folks.
