Cool. Ok so I now know that was me causing the jitter. Cause as my arm kept feeling heavier and sore I wasn't really controlling the gun too well. Yes I defiantly need to use support. What I need to do is save money and get a membership to the new indoor range we have here. Their supposed to have a new deal coming out in a few days maybe I can convince hubby to squeeze some money my way....

I had my AR at the range last week, shooting steel plates at 100yd--one of which was a 4" disc. A LOT of my shooting was using support (even if it was just resting the magazine on the bench) so I could focus on the sight picture and trigger, but I also shot standing, with the sights inevitably moving a bit. The faint ting! of bullets hitting steel made all the effort worthwhile!!  |
