I am new to the sport and have only about 150 rounds of .45 under my belt to date so far, but am thinking about pursuing shooting a little more. i.e. going to a shoot here or there and entering some level of competition.
I was on the NRA web page (nracentral.com) which I used to join a couple of weeks ago, as I said to myself," Self, if you are going to own a gun, support the guys that are in your corner". Anyways, whilst there, I saw some of the marksman sports and thought that they would be great to get into and get better at shooting.
So last Tuesday, I was at my local indoor range and shot my best so far. However, it became apparent to me that my 9 shots were at 8 yards and Bullseye is at 50!!
It looks like I got 9 tens (my best) and a few x's, but I can't for the life of me figure how I am ever going to hit something 50 yards away.
Any suggestions?
Attached is my best group, but happily most targets that night were similar. A good day for me, anyways..
