I had another good day at the range. My first two mags were crap (my shooting). I was getting frustrated so I told myself to relax and slow down so I could feel the trigger pull. That did the trick. I got back on the right track. I do almost all of my shooting at 7 yards. That seems far enough to show my errors but close enough to save my ego. Besides, if I ever
had to use the gun, I suspect it would be at 7yds or less anyway. My groups are getting smaller and my shots are centered around the bullseye instead of low and left (well, maybe occasionally). I tried a few targets out at 15 yards. I could tell that my shots were improving out at that distance too. Previously, I was just happy to get all of the bullets onto an 8.5x11 sheet of paper at 15 yards. Now most of my shots at 15yds are in a 2.5-4" group.
Here's my best 10 shots at 7 yds.
Someone in my last thread mentioned that I wasn't reacquiring the sights after each shot. That's true, I always want to look at the target after each shot. That was causing a couple of problems. Today I tried to reacquire the sights after each shot (mostly successful) and that seemed to help.
This gun thing is fun. Sadly, I want several more now. I need to win the lottery. I have way too many interests.
