Spartans wouldn't rely on the targetting reticule, nor would they be trained to. They would probably use it only for quick bursts of fire while doing activities that prevent them from shouldering their weapon. Shouldering your weapon helps to control recoil, as well as providing you with more accurate fire when aiming down the sights.
