Need some advice...
I seem to be suffering from flinching and/or recoil anticipation. I'm relatively new to this, so be patient with me...
I went to the range today and started out with a little dry fire. I've been doing dry fire exercise at home and have been getting better at holding the sites steady. Clearly still needs work though.
So I went to the range again today. Still shooting consistantly 4" groups 3-4" low at 7yds. I did 40 rounds from bench rest and did much better. 2" groups centered ~1" low.
After 150 rounds, really concentrating on my grip, I was doing a bit better.
After running out of ammo, I went back to dryfiring a bit and was shocked by what I saw. The first few pulls at the trigger the front site involuntarily shot downwards in a way it never normally moves during my dryfiring. It was like I was watching someone else pull the trigger. I had no control over it. My mind was expecting the bang and respondedd accordingly.
Any thoughts on how to improve this?
Thanks,
Matt
