Real wisdom TenX and elegantly written. Thanks much. looking forward to seeing you at the range this weekend.
I now understand the the mysterious allusions you and Mack The Knife were making about "a certain Range Officer's antics". Thanks for the complete absence of any warning - you fiends !

thank you so much Mr.TenX for the detailed instructions.i think these are the golden rules for me and will follow them by heart.no one ever explained me anything in such details covering each and every point.its like a jackpot for a new shooter like me.i have started following the instruction, i m typing this lying on prone postion with my laptop.

i am also very thankfull for others on this board who helped me with this topic.
i will go to the range soon & post the results.

All the best Raj :0
.. Hope you improve on the grouping front, although I should frankly say that much knowledge is sometimes a handicap, but a very dependable one. It may take a few practices for the results to be seen.. the best method for you, is something that comes over time, practice and experience... and becomes a part of you. So be patient and you will surely reap rewards.
All the very best

sir,
club members say that i have improved alot.as far as verticle-shift is considered,i have coped up with it as a result of tips given by you & Mr.TenX.
I will be posting the target papes soon.may be around 15-16th of this month.ammo is still a problem here.

Regards
Raj

Raj,

I would love to know the cause of the vertical shift if you have zeroed in on it, thanks

Hi everyone,

Finally i m uploading the target paper.Due to valuable tips & guidings given by the senior members,i think i m able to rectify my problem.here is my recent target.it was at 15mtrs ,i fired 5 shots with my open iron-sight springer.

the main reason(that i think ) responsible for the "vertical-shift" were :
--i was anticipating the shot.
--fake imsge of fore-sight due to straining of eyes.

Great going Raj .. well done

I feel a champion is not necessarily one who can shoot great, but one who can also get to know his faults, correct them and try to shoot better.
The grouping posted by you, on a springer with open sights is really good.
Next, try to shoot a series of targets - say 12 targets with 5 shots each. Check for group variations caused by fatigue, muscle tiring, etc. Score them, and get to improve on it. There should be a time when your effort to shoot the first card and the last (12th) card does not have any change. This will mean your consistency to shoot evenly thru out a match, leading to great scores.
All the very best
