Had some time yesterday so I took the SA CMP Special Grade out to test the Greek surplus from Widners.
FYI- I did a corrosion test on tis suff and it appears that it is not. (Pulled a bullet and popped a primer on bare stell, three days later and no rust.) YMMV Anyway, love me tender 100 yards The tool  One clip off sand bag to check zero  4 clips offhand. I used to be better   |

If you ask me, that's some good shooting offhand. Off hand is the hardest. I feel like I only really shoot well, prone, sitting or the bench. Get me off hand and I'm struggling. I have shot some deer offhand, but I'm guessing it was luck and the fact that the rifles I used had light triggers. LOL.
For some reason when I shoot my Garand offhand, I really have to fight the flinch. And not win. Not sure why. I'm not real big or strong and the fatigue might get to me. |

I've found dry-fire drills help a lot with controlling the offhand flinch. As far as being big and strong, I am... and get fatigued anyway when I get sloppy and start trying to muscle the rifle around instead of supporting it properly using bone structure. Sitting has been the worst for me, lately. Just having a hard time finding that natural, reasonably comfortable position, repeatably. But practice, fundamentals... it's a constant progression. |

I just remind myself that I'm part of the machine, the recoil won't injure me, and focus on the squeeze (having a long neck in prone sucks, though - fat lip after matches). Make sure the stock is in the shoulder firmly and roll with the punch. ETA: that'll do, OP.  |
