It's been too long since I've been able to go shoot. Over the long time away I have worked on several different new loads and today was the first time I got a chance see what was going to happen.
I loaded 6 different 357 mag target/plinking rounds using RMR 158gr plated round nose flat point bullets with Titegroup. I shot these early this morning with no food or caffeine in my system. I guess it's been so long I didn't follow my usual routine. By the time I was halfway through I was getting shakey, the wind was blowing enough to be annoying and I was shooting off hand standing.
I ran 6 rounds of 4.5-5.0gr each in 0.1 increments at roughly 10 yards. Each target is designated by powder charge. I was using my Ruger GP 100 with a 6" barrel and new grips that I had never used before. Because I was shooting off hand and I wasn't feeling 100% I know I can do better.
I would appreciate your input looking at the picture. Which one looks the best? I know there were a few shots that were off in almost every target because I shaking.
I normally run 3 rounds on each target and then run through 3 more after I run through the whole process. I don't know why I did what I did today but it wasn't my normal process.
