Freestyle shooting at 25 yds revisited

[Caballoflaco]

Today's results:




EDIT:

Also had an issue with Wolf in my Magpul mags. It seemed like the rounds stuck together as if they were sticky and I could feel the rounds rattling around. This happen to anyone else or is it time to retire that mag?

This is a known problem. There are lots of reports of steel ammo not working in magpul mags, to the point I haven’t even tried it in my magpul magazines. The going theory is that the steel cases cause too much friction against the polymer walls of the magazine. (Glock mags have steel liners)

Printed this with G3G17 stock except minus connector and S&B ammo. Plus using laser sighting for the first time ever. It's kind of nice using a frikken laser once it gets zeroed. If you don't count my three high right yanks that is a 2" group from the old pistol.

Practicing some dry fire tonight and on a whim I tried taking my support hand thumb off the frame (normally I press with firm pressure to the left and down) and noticed stability in the dot after the striker fell.

Going to try it live fire (hopefully this weekend) and see if it makes a difference.

My son’s newest. We just got back from trying it out. Raining....in a rush....I decide to not put up a repair center.

And of course, put up a 100-1X.

Shot this freestyle with my Glock 48 and a 1 MOA RMR cold the other day

[Eric_L]

This was not shot cold, but was the first shooting from this gun for the day. Paced 33 yards. I’ve checked my steps and it is at least 30.

Under 15 sec. solo, so no pressure. 147 Gold Dot.

I did 7 miles with the dogs up and down hills with a 45 Lb ruck came home had a quick lunch and hit the range for a quickie.

25 yards shot cold, Dan Wesson Valor with 10-8 .156 rear sight. El Snatcho got me on round #3 (8-ring).

[David S.]

97-2X. I think that’s a PR.

Really struggling with the flinchies lately. That day was no exception. Just happened to score decently well on that round.

So here's your dumb question of the day. Am I the only one who struggles at the 25 yd FS sort of shooting to the point that you've pretty well got to hit the right day, stayed at a Holiday Inn Express the night before, got fuel at the right station, and caught the right traffic light in order to get decent scores?

I seem to catch days every month-ish where I shoot it really well, and sometimes it's meh, and sometimes I just plain suck ass. Some of this I do realize has just about as much to do with the fact that when it blows 20 mph all the time there ain't much hope for it.
