My most recent qualifying shoot, I hit 245 out of a possible 245. That was with a brand new pistol. Not that I don’t appreciate putting some rounds down range, I do.
I am glad for those of you that are good shots. I only recently picked up a handgun, and need a LOT of practice. I am happy to hit the backstop at 25 yards, let alone the scoring rings. I figure that will come with time and patience.
With long guns, I’m OK but not great, so more range time is needed there, too. My biggest problem is my range being 6 hours away. None of the local clubs have room or reasonable rates for range-only uses.
I make my range trips 3-10 days long.
JMHO, YMMV
