How do you keep track of what your results were at what distance? I find myself thinking maybe I could get a marker or a red pen and before I change distances, bring my target in and mark what I have shot so far. Or should I use separate targets for each distance. I hate to do that because it seems nice to be able to move the target at will.
Well put.A word of caution - don't equate small groups with good defensive shooting. In high stress situations, small muscle motor control goes out the window and small muscle motor control is the biggest factor to achieve small groups. Small groups are a lot of fun and provide instant gratification but without hours of practice to develop techniques that can be carried over to high stress situations small groups shouldn't be the goal you focus on. If you are shooting COM consistently from a variety of positions at different distances you are on your way to developing good defensive shooting techniques.

After you have mastered the basics and have learned how to run the gun you can get a bit more serious about it, for now relax, have fun and find what works best for you.
Good to remind ourselves constantly of that.President JT said:... but the ability to point shoot and hit center of mass consistently is the skill that will make the real difference.
But for the moment, I've become distracted by the allure of AR's
Aw, now, who's leg you pullin'? That ain't no AR.Lever action AR in 45/70.
have an EBR' (*) to match my EBR.
