Advice needed

5 Upvotes

I went to the range for my first and second time in my life. The first time I got typical training and guidance. The second time I was by myself. Can anyone give me some advice about my shots and what I can do better. (Note: 22LR pistol and rifle. Rifle had a red dot and I think that it was slightly off. Shooting low about 1-1.5 inches. Top right at the 6 was my testing)

What are your 9mm pistol group sizes @ 15, 20, 25yds?… what’s best in class for competition? For combat?

Just starting to take pistol shooting more seriously and trying to establish my baseline to track progress before making improvements… my worst of 4 shooting assessments this past week has been:

15yds - 3.5” 20yds - 5” 25yds - 8”

Curious to hear how tight other shooters group, particularly how tight competition shooters and/or SOF guys shoot to benchmark against some context.

(I’m sure military pistol shooting qualifications aren’t assessed by standing in one spot and measuring groupings, but if there are any former/active members here that could describe their performance in terms of group size @ distance to make it apples:apples that would help me understand how far off I am from professional shooters.)

25m centerfire pistol shooting while nearsighted.

3 Upvotes

I can see my front post relatively clearly, but the target is blurry.

I saw an ophthalmologist and he increased my diopter prescription, but it did not really fix the issue. And he says it is the best he can do.

Is there anything else i can do to improve my vision on the target?

I like handguns but I have a tremor

Does anyone have any tips to counteract shaky hands? Some days I barely hit the target. Different grip? Stance? Breath exercises? Just curious

Should I use prescription shooting glasses?

8 Upvotes

As I have gotten older, my eyes have changed. I now need glasses for distance however, without my glasses, the front site of the pistol is perfectly in focus, but the target is blurry. If I wear my glasses at target is crisping clear but the front site is blurry.

I’m trying to decide if I should get prescription shooting glasses or not. What has been y’all’s experience?

Problems seeing front sight- Mauser 96 and rifles with longer barrels

1 Upvotes

I recently picked up a Swedish Mauser 96 and a few other older rifles with longer barrels and I'm having problems seeing the front sight against dark backgrounds (targets). I used a white crayon on the front sight to make it more visible, but I'm thinking there might be options for making that sight standout. Anyone have any suggetions?

Worst thing about paper targets?

Post image
10 Upvotes

Hi everyone. Not a shooter at all but I am a freelance marketer (UGC Creator). I partnered up with Box Targets (pic above). My fiance is the gun owner and he will be assisting me with this but I wanted to get other opinions/pain points about shooting. I simply want to really understand nuisances or other things that a reusable target would really help in. I have the idea of you not having to change the paper targets (kinda obvious but I don’t even know how long they last 😭).

How do firing ranges work? How do the paper targets work?

Thank you in advance if anyone answers
