A LOT of C-zone bill drills 😂 maybe even a delta or two 🤦🏻‍♀️ just one of those days.

Having some guys from church over tomorrow to shoot. Mostly total beginners, so I don't expect I'll get a chance to do anything at 25 yards. Today was too jam-packed to get out. Did some recording in the morning and afternoon, then helping run herd on the kids and helping my oldest sculpt his custom Grand Prix car design. He wanted to do a Star Destroyer. The little model ship (Corellian Corvette) will be incorporated into the car to recreate the iconic opening scene from the original Star Wars.

I guess this is more of a journal entry than a monthly challenge entry, but I already wrote it, so I'm posting it anyway. 😀

So here we go with my mediocre performance. Shot the XC and all I can say is DAMN!

This is the best I could do with my shaky ass hands. Mind you I put 600 rounds through it today. Had to take the day off to so I could go to the range. My time is, well, don’t have much.

Most targets have a pair of holes in the center and the rest of the holes are on the target - solid performance for 25 yards…especially since it’s not an ACW 🤣

Ackchyuahlly….. I did a one-on-one session with one of the instructors at the range today, and at one point the exercise was to do my best 5 round group at 25 yards, using a 5” black bullseye.
I managed to not embarrass myself, and land all 5 in the black unsupported. My guess is it was a 3.5-4” group, still not close to having a shot at the title.

At my local range with my Garrison today shooting 230 Federal Hi-Shok. Stock iron sights, front is Dawson Fiber Optic at stock height. 25 yards, standing two hand unsupported. I forgot to stop at 5 so did 10 rounds but got all of them on paper (barely!). 79-0X, not bad for me. I'm thinking this might be a 6 o'clock hold gun; this was with top of front sight bisecting the bullseye.

Springfield is famous for 6 o’clock hold sights, you may want a taller front sight. I think they use a .350 rear.
