Mixed bag...

... at the range this week.  I want too much too soon and moved too far back at first, which cost me accuracy.  Felt better when I had chewed a good sized hole in the center of the target with the Browning after moving up again.  That's a fun gun to shoot - substantial feeling without being big or overly heavy.  Easy to control.  The little .38 is more of a problem.  I'm tending to the left, and sometimes I'm doing the mental equivalent of a face squinch just before it fires, which means I'm anticipating the shot and flinching.  The only solution I know is to go shoot it some more.

  1. Get someone to go with you that has a .22; then you can see what you're doing by swapping back and forth. It's a good way to work out of flinching- also snap caps randomly inserted work wonders for that too.

  2. Gonna pester Murphy's Law to let me go with him again soon - he'll straighten me up.

  3. Extra range time with a can of ammo and ML as company? Sounds like a good day. Anticipation is usually pretty easy to diagnose and fix with a good partner. I'm betting you'll zeroed in in no time.
