Thanks, guys, I appreciate the kind words. I do need to tighten those 7+ yard groups up. One thing that has helped me shoot this little guy: with my semiautos, I tend to use the pad of my trigger finger on the trigger. With 1911's (sweet triggers) I got better control with that method. I had problems with this method shooting the snubby; my finger is a little weak, and I would open up the groups by moving the light little snub during the trigger pull.
I emptied the gun (EMPTY! CHECK AGAIN!) and did some dryfire practice at home. I noticed I was able to keep the sights much steadier if I put my first joint on the trigger for the squeeze.
My groups have gotten better since.
To tell you the truth, I haven't practiced with the snub as much as I'd like. I recently switched from all 1911's to few 1911's, and SIG Sauer's for my semiautos. I also switched from .45 (obviously) to a 9mm carry gun (SIG P239). I have been spending a LOT of quality time with the P239, and I've finally started to settle into that pistol. The snubby is getting more of a workout now, and I hope to increase my proficiency to that of the SIG.
