Fourth trip out with my Buckmark .22
DANG! I've got a decent grouping for only being a first year shooter with pistols.
Problem is, I'm 3 inches below the target.
Last trip to the range, I was low and to the left about 3 inches each direction.
Today, about 50 rounds through at 15 yds - factory sights - no adjustments made and I'm still low.
Today, I concentrated on working to correct the left drift.
- pad of the finger on the trigger
- breathe, pause, squeeze
I've noticed that I tend to shoot low at 15 yards no matter which gun I'm using: Ruger SB9, Taurus PT709 or Buckmark.
With the Buckmark .22 I'm about an extra inch lower than with the 9s. But, I didn't think to bring a 9mm today to see if it was about the same across the pistols
What do I need to be watching for?
