Have you checked your shooting habits. I found recently that I'd "forgotten" that most light rifles need to be held rather than shot free recoil and halved the group size I was getting with a...

Always the same, I thought I would be a useful person during the earthquakes, older, level headed, seen my share of industrial accidents. Felt somewhat useless as it was controlled & was told...
