So I was at the range recently, and after practicing several hours with a 9mm compact pistol was able to successfully and repeatedly shoot 2" groups at 15 yards. However the center of the groups was consistently about 2" high dead center above the bulls eye. I used the same ammo in a friends 1911 style 9mm and also shot 2" groups but about 3" high of dead center.
According to the pistol diagnostic charts this means I am "breaking wrist up", but neither my friend nor I could figure out how to fix this. For both pistols I used the appropriate (but different) sight picture for that gun, so I'm pretty sure the issue is in my handling/firing and not sight picture.
Can anyone give me some pointers on how to fix this, apart from aiming lower? I was really pleased with the groups, now if I could only get them 2" lower!
