When it comes to shooting paper I've historically used semi-autos. Glock 9mm, 40 cal, Springfield XDM, Sig Sauer.... I've shot plenty of new and used guns. However, I went to a local range today and rented two revolvers (both S&W 38 specials). I shot better with them than anything I've ever shot before. The difference was huge. With the autos I'd pretty much always hit the paper but I'd be all over the large black circle. With the revolvers I missed the bullseye 3 out of 50 shots. I talked to a few people at the range and they all said they shoot better with revolvers.
Has anyone else experienced this? Are revolvers inherently more accurate? My guess is the reciprocating mass (i.e. slide) could cause the difference but if that's the case I would thing all target pistols would revolvers.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
