Back to our regularly scheduled programming!

I tried point shooting for the first time in 5 yrs. today. Started at 7 yds. with my 640 Centennial loaded with full house .357 mag.

Hit rate was a dismal 10%. 30 rds. shot and only 3 holes on the target.The last time I point shot I was 50 for 50 at that distance,(which is why I haven't done this in so long, it was easy...then) using B-27 Q targets (half-size man silhouette) Moved up to 5 yds. and 30 more rds. and hit rate jumped to a tick under 50%. Not even close to acceptable.

Moved up to 3 yds. and was better than 90%. Still needs work!!

I was drawing from my pocket and on the timer. Hands at the side, as if I were walking naturally. Draws were in the 1.70- 2.0 second range. I could empty the gun in 1.8 secs. or less on .35-.40 splits @ 3 yds.

I will work this into my training from now on. Was a real eye opener.
