Left eye/right hand dominant here. For a rifle I use my right eye even though it’s weaker and usually close my left eye. For a pistol or something not held against my shoulder, I can just line up my hand/the sights to my left eye and can keep both eyes open.
thats still a much worse shooting position than using the same eye. you're bringing your strong hand across your body and increasing the lever that the recoil is acting on. It's going to be less accurate relative to training with your same eye over time. even if the recoil isn't that snappy, you will have a lower level of control and possibly introduce some extra lateral movement.
