I'm a darn good shot! We (n003k and I) went out to the range today. I decided to try out the AK-74 for the first time. I tried it sitting down first, aiming at the little metal gong, about a foot in diameter, 100 yards away. I managed to hit it! Mind you, I managed this without a scope. Just the normal sights. I'm a pretty new shooter, so I just put it down to luck. I tried the gun standing up; managed to hit the gong again. At this point I'm thinking, alright, just some more luck.
Then I sat back down, as it was more comfortable, and kept aiming at this little metal gong. To mine and n003k's huge surprise, I continued to hit it over and over. There were some times where the wind would pick up and I'd get a little off, but I hit it more times than not. When I was all out of ammo for that, I switched to my little Ruger, a .22 revolver. Just jokingly n003k suggested I try to hit the gong with that...so I did. This time I only hit it 4 out of 10 times, but I was surprised that I managed to hit it at all!!! You learn something new every day.
