My grandson has been shooting since he could hold a gun. Back then dust meant it was a good shot. He has always been left eye dominant,open sights,scope. He shoots right handed and can aim with his left but it is slowww. So I put an adjustable stock on a 10-22 with a red dot-use both eyes right. He is pretty deadly this way.
Now for the confusion-he is now 10 and wanting to try something bigger. I borrowed a youth model 243 with a scope and took him out. He has never set down and tried to shoot a group before.
After the third shot-not a bad group I started paying attention to his technique. Imagine my surprise to see him using his RIGHT eye. When I asked him when he started doing that his response was " Since you put that red dot on"
Never fussed with the eye dominance thing, just tried to accommodate it. Quess it worked itself out. Loves the 243 by the way.
