Trevor300wsm Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) After reading all 14 pages of the recoil control thread, I came to the conclusion that I was not gripping the pistol hard enough. I'm still not sure that I am. Im trying to learn as much as possible here and I've been practicing a lot (for the past two weeks) since I decided I'd like to get better at properly shooting/controlling the gun. I think I have a ways to go. I used a much firmer grip today, kept the shoulders relaxed (to a degree) and elbows more out than in. Double taps were considerably better, but still not as tight as I'd like them to be. I was shooting at 12 yards on a full size target. Would some of you please take a look at this video and see if you can determine anything from it. It still looks like the gun has too much flip. It does settle back on target for me better than it has been however. This is with factory 9mm Speer Lawman 115gr ammo. I have some 147gr HP coming from Freedom to try also. Any tips, criticism, or advice would be greatly appreciated. Edited January 11, 2016 by Trevor300wsm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Looks pretty good to me ... If you reload, you can probably get less "flip" from a heavier bullet, at the same power factor. I'm not sure what the PF is for the 147 Freedoms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHA-LEE Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Need video footage of support hand side of the gun while shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor300wsm Posted January 11, 2016 Author Share Posted January 11, 2016 Ok Cha-Lee. I'll get some video from the other side. I was hoping you'd see this and weigh in. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbopower18 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Looks pretty good to me ... If you reload, you can probably get less "flip" from a heavier bullet, at the same power factor. I'm not sure what the PF is for the 147 Freedoms. They claim avg velocity of 900fps for pf of 132 on the 147gr HP Reman The heavier bullet should shoot somewhat softer than the 115gr. Reloading is your best friend in this case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
