(10/10/2023) Again i find myself on YouTube. came across 50 Round Drills so I’ve been working on the very first part— the lower and reset one. I’ve also started tracking exactly (at the end of the mag) where everything is going. theres fly aways. But generally I’m grouping a bit more

Ash and the Cardboard Dead
Ash had a good day at the range yesterday! This was 50 rounds of 7.5 bird.
Support hand ftw
Today I tried something new. Tacticool GF released a video on what you’re supposed to do with your non dominant hand when shooting. Pretty much, it drives while your trigger hand is focused on pulling the trigger. Well, damn if that didn’t fix my lower left issue! still working on how I position myself in…
Today’s Impromptu Range Visit
My doods. Look at who is starting to figure out groupings. I’ve noticed recovery is faster too. there’s definitely some messy shots. This visit was 2 days after my last visit and after 5 days of clearing my property of a crapton of 2 inch saplings that I had been ignoring. Word of advice? Never…
Don’t tell the others but i have a favorite
Don’t tell the others, but I have a favorite. Bets is a beautiful handgun. She’s everything I wanted in my first handgun and I’m learning so much from her. Rhianna, my rifle, is a nice stress free rifle. but— confession time— i get the most joy from working with Ash. I dropped 25 rounds of…
No grouping, but maybe a hint?
Still pretty diverse in where things land. Ending back on center area which is cool,!but it’s low center and that’s annoying something to note between the last target pic and this one, i spent 3 days doing intense yard work. I used a great deal of hand saws and loppers whilst climbing a steep hill….
Slowly migrating forward
These are the most rounds I’ve ever put in the center. someone once said, was it reddit? YouTube? I don’t remember where I heard it (and I’ve got $10 that they didn’t invent this saying), that shooting is an aggressive act. You take an aggressive posture. The low 7’s and low 8’s were fired before…
Little Tweaks on a pretty girl
Trying out a couple of tweaks with the hope it might help me . Let’s start with. Talon Grip tape There’s a possibility that under live fire, the firearm is slipping so hopefully this will help. Am looking at some Lox Grips if this doesn’t change a ton The next thing i did, I’ve noticed…
Shotgun Alley (but for short people)
Shotguns are cool. Don’t know why I feel this way, just do. I’ve always wanted one, had to be a pump action, and now I do. But here’s the thing— I’m 5’4 and weigh under 100 pounds. That makes shotguns difficult. The youth models are a hair awkward, but the grown up models are too,…
Didn’t you know that I was a Savage?
This is Rhianna. She’s a Savage Arms 64F. I like her. I figured i might as well get acquainted with long guns as well, and a little.22 caliber rifle sounded like the right way to go. I like what I see for an absolute beginner.
