You should not be pushing a weld puddle with a MIG unless you absolutely need to because of a cramped area or something.
You should be PULLING the weld. For example start the weld on your left and end on your right. The reason I say this is if you are Pushing the weld and have your tip at a 30* angle it will be really hard to see what you are doing and how the weld is coming along.
Stick Welding you Pull the weld.
Tig Welding and Gas welding you PUSH the Puddle......
