Freestyle shooting at 25 yds revisited

[Clusterfrack]

While the thread is largely a 25 yard b8 thread, it's cold so I'm shooting steel. Working draws at 25 and 50 with the goal of staying within the two second envelope with my winter coat. Only 1 was within that time at 50 and i had 2 misses. Fairly easy goal at 25 for the target, ta mini dap, but still pressed and milked one off target at 25.

1.6x is a good time for draw to hit at 25 and especially 50. Nice shooting!

It's capable of tighter groups.

Good work with irons. I always struggled to get groups like that consistently.

Truly it's the gun more than me. LTT trigger work, whatever voodoo Ernest & company agreed upon with Beretta...all of that makes this thing a frickin laser beam. Having seen some of your shooting, I know you shoot a LTT as well, so you probably fully know how excellent it is.

I tend to do much better with irons for strict accuracy shooting, but I am starting to play around with a dot. My first hundo on a B8 target was using iron sights. My problem is that all of the years I spent focusing on front and rear sight means I focus on the screen of the RDS and that really messes up the dot.

Otherwise, I've put a metric ton of .22lr downrange through a Ruger MkIV, which helps me with trigger control and sight picture.

Ran the Hybrid Bullseye course from my buddy today. I've been on a shooting hiatus for a while other than some demos when helping teach lately, today I worked this and some other stuff in a full range session which was great.

The CoF is as follows all at 25 yards- 10 rounds slow fire UN-timed, 5 rounds from the holster in 20seconds or less x2, and then 5 rounds from the holster in 15seconds or less x2.

Slow fire group 97-3x


With the 5 in 20sec x2 93-2x I called the 8 ringer and high 9 shot.


With the 5 in 15sec x2 92-2X The eight ringers were from the first 5, I had a bad grip out of the holster and ran with it and called the 8 ringers etc. (shooting out of a Phlster floodlight as I'm waiting on other holsters).


282 7x total out of 300 possible.

Stock, plastic sights. Norma 124 grain 9mm

I had a 99-2X going and then absolutely blew shot #9 nearly off target.



I dig that retro pistol.

98-3X by my count.

Im absolutely amazed at the groups you guys are putting on paper @ 25 yds. I’ve been at this about a year now. Regular monthly and bi monthly or more trips to the range despite the ammo shortage. and this is the best group I’ve managed @ that distance to date. 5 rounds,.. and only one off the black altogether. (…which is good fer me cuz it’s usually more.)
