I do alright for myself at ranges under 35 yards off the bench with a sidearm, but when I practice offhand my groups are usually hit or miss (no pun intended). I have put quite a few rounds(meaning a dozen or so 550 round packs of 22 rimfire) down range out of several different handguns but I don't seem to be improving. oddly enough I seem to actually double my accuracy when I aim at cans or other targets placed on the backstop instead of a paper target(can hit a pop can 3 out of 5 times but may perhaps get only one or two hits on a paper plate sized bullseye). I want to ask your opinion as to if you think I shoud start shooting left handed. I am a right handed person but I am blind in my right eye so when I shoot rifles I shoot from the left shoulder. I never really thought to shoot handguns with my left however until I noticed in a mirror that when i present my gun my head is tilted quite a bit to the right to get my left eye over to the sight plane. Could this be hurting my aim somehow?
