What shooting position is commonly used when hunting with a shotgun?

  1. Prone position

  2. Sitting position

  3. Kneeling position

  4. Standing position

The correct answer is: Standing position

The most commonly used shooting position when hunting with a shotgun is the standing position. This is because the standing position allows for better mobility and flexibility to adjust to changing targets and terrain. While the prone, sitting, and kneeling positions may offer more stability for shooting, they may limit the shooter's ability to quickly and accurately aim and shoot at moving targets. Therefore, these positions are not as commonly used when hunting with a shotgun.
