At the shooting range today

[spittoon]

No wind,warm, calm, and then it happened<< I jerked "flinched" the trigger and again and again,,,,,,, what the funonion, I feel all most dirty admitting it. The worst part is these rifle's don't kick 300 winni ,300rum with brakes. So I tested no bullet in the gun pulled the trigger no flinching. I put the bullet in the gun and the cross hairs freakn start dancing wow .I have loaded some more round's and I'm stepping out the door to try it again after lunch>>>>> The moral to this story I may be jerkin off at the range.While the rest of you are freakin at work But does any body have advice? On braking the habit of flinching or just plain jerking the trigger.

This.

Get a couple of snap caps in your favorite caliber. Have someone else load your magazines while you load theirs. You should have the same break on the trigger regardless of live vs dummy round. Some movement of the front sight is natural, so don't force the shot.

The other benefit to ball and dummy is you get good practice on clearing a bad round. Anyone who has never had a bad round hasn't shot enough.

IMO, consistency is the gold standard of shooting.

Be safe.

We do this all the time at the range. Not so much for jerking off, but to be surprised when something isn't working. But I can totally see it working for jerking the trigger!

Every time I hit the range I see lots of guys jerking off.

Seems you're not alone.

Did this to my wife at the range last weekend because she was flinching/jerking like crazy shooting .45 but she didn't beleive me until I threw a couple of snap caps in her mag without her knowing.

I am a Jerk, most of you know this. But its true. A frend of mine was having trouble shooting his 357 mag. I put 1 357 in and the rest 38 spcl. jerked every time. Went to snap caps. and one live one. Jerked once or twice but after that. No jerky. took a few times but it calmed his nerve and focused his mind.


P.S. If that doesn't work for you sell the rifles to me and buy a 22 short rifle. Now go and be a MAN!!!!
