I never said I wasn't going to. I was just clarifying what Seeklander said, and that there is more than one way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 15 yards is out there a bit. I vote trigger control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris iliff Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Years ago I'm standing next to Manny Bragg in a class of his and we are both shooting at 25 yards. It suprised me that at that distance our splits were the same. I asked him about it and he replied something to the effect that at the farther distances, 15 yards and out, most shooters have the same splits for guaranteed A's. Fast splits in close are fun and rewarding, fast splits much past 12 yards or so are a fools errand. IMHO YMMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuckie45 Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Seem that being able to track the sights through the recoil cycle it key here. A lot of people have used the berm drill to do that for the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people have used the berm drill to do that for the first time. That will teach you to see your sights in motion, which is also a huge help. But to get the front sight to return exactly to the center of the notch? That's a function of grip pressures being balanced and learning to drive the gun back down out of recoil to the exact same spot every time. Ideally the front sight will travel only in a 100% vertical plane without any sideways motion, and return right back where it came from. That's the goal of the drills in this thread - to learn proper recoil control and how to drive the gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
