yes, that's with the scope! but the thing was, it was quick shots without using any support. and this was my 4th day shooting a handgun ever! i've always been pretty good with any rifle period but never had any access to handguns. by the way, i'm probably going to get that Ruger .300 win mag as soon as i can. starting to seem like a decent price the more i try to find one cheaper!

Not too shabby, just keep practicing, and you will get better.

cutting the grass now and going to set up my shooting area today! can't wait!
going to see if i can chop down a 20' stump, with bullets!!! just keep putting my dots in the same general area and i figure it'll come down sooner than later! i'm wanting to get where i can hit 6 targets separately in the bullseye in quick succession!
set goals-work toward goals-achieve goals-set new goals!

i dont care to brag, not that i wont, i was just sharing my progress. i was kinda proud because of the speed i took the shots! as soon as i recovered from recoil and the scope hit the center BLAM! and then again and again for all 6. i've notice i was pulling down on the gun as i pulled the trigger after i tried it again, but hey, find your flaws and fix them...you know!

yea, i guess i was pulling down subconsciously to counter the recoil. i'm going to try just keeping my arms straight without worrying about downforce and see if it helps!

I have shot a few .44 magnums and have not enjoyed the experience. However, if I had to, I suppose I could put all six shots into a five foot patch!
