That's so funny. I just bought that Volquartsen I-Fluted 22 rifle featured on Top-Shot and never heard the name or anyone else say that name until i saw the show.

Thanks for the advice

Best Starter 22

I have a freind who can't afford the high end 22's and wants a starter firearm. He is looking at the Buckmark and mentioned the Walther SP22. I hear Ruger also. What is recommended?

Thank you

Thank you! I will do the search. I was also taight this weekend the left arm is bent for a right hand shooter kinda tuycked at the side which seems to me to bring a lot more angles and large muscles into the hold.

Two-handed grip pressure

I am concentrating on two points of contact. The web between my thumb and index figure, pushing and the middle of my left hand fingers pulling. No gripping with my right hand fingers or thumbs.

I am new and would like any feedback on two-handed grips.

Thanks

I am not sure what ultrdot i have. It came with a measurement wheel that you slip an allen key through then into the adjustment hole and turn for the elvation and windage. It does not have "clicks" The aimpoint Micro is precise. Zeroed at 25 yards i just go up 20 clicks and i am on at 50 y...

Hi Jack: Thank you very much. I just purchased an MCP 45 and Nick is mounting an aimpoint micro for my 55 year old eyes. For iron i need a .5 lense to focus on my front sight. My 32 has the red dot and i do better with that for now. I am starting to read Brian Zinns manual from the link you provided...

Hi Bill: This weekend on the practice range i found out exactly what you just said. The slower i empty the magazine the wobblier i was. Maybe too much time to think. I am improving every week as now 35/100 shots are in the 10 area at 25 yards and about 15 at 50 yards. There were NONE when i started ...

You guys can flat out shoot. At 50 yards standing and with two hands I manage to keep most of my shots inside a 6 inch target with an aim point micro. That's on a walther gsp. With iron on my les Baer 45 forget it I barely have any. Your friend Bill shot that score with one hand at 50 yards is somet...

Does your sight picture actually stop? Or do you release the shot as you're moving through your aim mark?

Thanks, seems the more I fry to have a still hold the more it wobbles. I'm brand new but want to create repetitive shot routines.

Oldcaster, are you shooting iron sights on that 50 yard 10 shot group? I am thoroughly impressed. My first stand up practice today at 50 yards and I kept almost all on the target. 100 rounds had 25 in the inner two rings. 12 center.

Funny I was thrilled with that.
