I spent a couple days shooting at 25-yards and while ok, I was disappointed in my shooting. I was pulling 211 to 215 scores on USBR targets and not where I expected to be. I will get back to those.
Today the range was very busy. I spent a lot of time socializing and less time shooting. I wanted to get back to 50-yard shooting. So after getting the scope readjusted I shot a 3-bull target for groups. One 5-shot group and two 10-shot groups.
It was a great start with the 5-shot group at 0.36". One of my best. Of course I was thinking I was hot stuff. Nope.
The next group of 10 were all poor shooting by an overconfident shooter. Tigger control sucked. While 8 were within 1.18" it was 1.95" for 10. Yikes!
So, with ego on the line I refocused. I was able to get back to under an inch for the next 10-shot group. Ok for me, not great for many others.
I was using weight sorted AA Field 8.4 grain 4.52 sorted to 8.5 grains.
